Hi all,
which brands/styles of front strut brace alone will noticeably reduce scuttle shake.

As always thanks for the info

Not sure if a strut brace will do much for scuttle shake. But it'll add some bling to your engine bay. :wink:

You're better off getting a rear brace between the seatbelt towers - or a 4-point rollbar. Both of them will noticeably reduce scuttle shake. :)

This thread on miata.net provides some more advice and recommendations:
