cusco 4 pt front lower arm brace
anyone using ? wondering if it helps ... i had one on another car, and it definitely made the suspension tighter on handling ...
would it make any difference if i did this before swift springs ?
just want to make it's fine to do this before springs ...

Swifts and rsb will take care of the body roll.I'm sure the brace would help on the track but for hard street and canyon driving the Swifts along with a good 205 tire
was all I needed.I also considered several different braces including both 4/6 point
but after the Swifts I no longer feel the need.

I've got the version two (4-point) bar coming in on Monday. I should have it installed sometime next week. I'll be updating my thread and such. I've also got version one (the 2-point) coming in mid-December.
EDIT
You mean this one, yes?

I can only speak from my personal experience with my car.I have no pictures or video of me pushing my Fit hard in the turns.
The body roll that was present when completely stock was pretty bad,
after the Swifts,RSB,tires it is all but gone.
I do think the braces serve a purpose but I would do the Swifts and rsb first and see what you think.

I'll let you know how it works out once I get mine installed, which should be sometime this week. From what I hear, you can't go wrong with Swifts and the Progress RSB. The addition of the CUSCO brace should be an excellent addition to your setup.

My parts are at my friends warehouse and I will be picking up the Cusco version 1 and 2 under braces and Cusco front sway bar next week. I have the Progress RSB in the garage. I will be installing them all at the same time. I don't really want to lower my Fit but if I'm still not happy I will pick up the Swift springs and have them installed.

I probably recommend you go for Cusco front and rear sway bar first before getting lower arm bars....
sway bar reduce the body roll dramatically.
lower arm bars just make the chassis more stronger.
