Is there any real benefit to paying the extra money for the Kenny Brown style SFC's over the style with only 2 attachment points? I'm sure they make the chassis more rigid, but does the extra cost outweigh the benefit? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

no...the extra bracing is worth the money. It ties the outside of the car to the center brace, resulting in the entire car being "one". It costs more because it does more.

www.spectaclesolutions.com is almost in your back yard, I would recommend checking them out.....and yes I think the double-D design is the way to go.

Vote for KBDD's here. They also are the lightest double diamond SFC's (32lbs) out there right now. The others weigh approx 40lbs.

I've heard that if you plan on installing a cage later on, the BMR SFCs would be more than sufficient for now ... not sure if this is your case, but just thought I would mention it.

If your planning on drag racing often I'd go with the BMR boxed. The DD's are alot heavier. And if you were to ask any of the people on the top 50 list I would bet NONE of them run DD's. Now if your wanting to road race, then thats a different story. I personally went with the BMR boxed, and I love them. Plus some of the DD designs need to be modified if you ever decide to go with longtubes.

The KBDDs made a HUGE difference with mine, there worth the extra money. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I have the kenny browns and they are the way to go if you want it to handle better. Drag racing you could use the others.

go with the Kenny Browns, the "extra" weight won't matter if you just want the best SFCs out there. The car will feel 100% tighter in the corners AND straightline also. I have SLP longtubes and had no problem with fitting the SFCs on. Weld-on type fit perfect. This is the best structural mod I have done.

I love my KBDD's and they are not that heavy at all, made a big difference, went in like a glove and was worth the money

Okay, okay! You guys have sold me on the KBDD's! I actually wanted those anyways, and what's an extra $50!? Thanks for the help/input. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

If i was to install long-tube headers, would I need to remove the Double Diamond subframe connectors?

No DD SFC's will work with most LT's.

My KBDD's are on their way for my convertible. I will post install info and results, shortly. It only took jacking up my car and putting it on jackstands once to convince me the chassis needed some help. <img border="0" alt="[burn out]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_burnout.gif" />

So let's say my car has the double diamond subframe connectors, and I want to install some new long tube headers. Would installation of my headers equire the removal of my subframe connectors and the reinstallation of them afterwards?

What I'm asking is if it would be a pain to install LTs with the subframe connectors on?

I have KB DD's they perform awesome my Z feels super solid. Not to steal you're post but does anyone know if you can install a true dual exhaust with DD's?
