I'm looking for a set of strut tower braces to stiffen up my mk2 diesel and was wonder what you guys would recommend for a quality front and rear braces.

I prob should've mentioned they're for my mk2 Jetta, I'm having a hard time finding a rear brace for it.

The golf rear brace isn't any different from jetta's? Wasn't sure on that and all the rear braces I have seen are for golfs.

Neuspeed sells a great one. Really good price, easy to install. I've run a front strut brace in two Jetta's now. To be honest with you tho you'd be better off spending the money first on new strut body mounts, then replacing all the bushings in the control arm and sway bar set up. If you do go that route buy mounts for a VR6.

I never really felt much of a strut bars effects un till I took it off to work on the engine and left it off for a road test. Then I noticed it.

Skip the rear brace, you wont feel anything at all and its a whore to install. The back of a Jetta is already pretty stiff. To get any more you'd have to go to a race style 3 point triangular brace witch renders your trunk useless after.

A rear sway bar makes a world of difference it'll get rid of a ton of body roll
