I would have thought a rear strut brace wouldn,t make any difference.......unless it is a well designed triangulated version....

If you look at how the shell is made there is no need for a rear brace.

Agreed, unless its a wagon, no point in a conventional rear strut brace at all, tringulated to the floor yes, straight bar, forget it.

Front H-brace is a worthwhile addition though.
