quick question - what's people's general opinion on adding a rear strut brace without any suspension upgrades such as lowering, coilovers, etc? Will it do much to improve the handling; particularly understeer? Also, does installing one involve drilling and lowering the suspension out etc?

Cheers

I wouldn't bother - there are plenty of better things you can do with your money - e.g. anti-rollbars, suspension, front upper strut brace. A rear strutbrace has to be towards the bottom of the list of handling mods in my eyes.

I agree with that, I only bought one because I was looking for my next thing to get and I wanted one to match the front strut brace. The front makes a big difference imo.
