I did check that previous thread, but there was no mention about chassis flex.

May be the suspension, or I'm going crazy

How much are these braces and do they change the driving feel of the car?

You're not alone man. It might be the sound of the interior panels just flexing, but at the same time it does *feel* like the chassis is flexing *just* a little bit.

Which also brings up the question, are those gt-spec braces snake-oil? I feel like it could add some structural integrity, but I think the added weight would negate the benefits (If we're talking about handling, not about chassis flex).
