Whats the best way to brace unibody frames?
 
can anyone help me out here? i am going to try to brace up the frame of the stealth for a little better cornering, it sits good on turn but you can feel the weight shift the coming out of the turn.

the basic upper lower strut/suspension supports w/that hard red rubber suspension inserts, i can't remember the name but i think it's energy suspension. thicker sway bars, stiffer shocks and springs. you do all that ans your car will handle like a go kart.

Fab up a full roll cage ;) Definately strengthens it up.

If you do it correctly and use the right materials, yes it will definately make it alot more rigid. Theres going to be alot of work involved though, it's not just weld some bars in wherever you want. Your going to need to make alot of measurements and study up on where/how to strengthen in the car.
