Is it worth getting a front and/or rear strut brace for an STi8?

The Jap versions have a front one, so could that be an indication???

IMO - no for the front, unless you get a FMIC the Strut Brace has to have the curve in it to get round the TMIC anyway, so it can't be doing it's job very well at the front.

As for the rear, same as any other - the P1 has one across the back seats to improve the rigidity over the standard Turbo and it feels a lot more sorted (granted this isn't the only thing different that will affect the handling, but it's all part of the parcel) ;)
