Default passwordjdm bars

I'm considering starting a new project and the first thing on my list if I do start a new project car is suspension. So I already have some idea of what I want to do.

My ? is do the 3pt passwordjdm front bars have any noticeable difference between a conventional 2 pt. I know in theory it should help reduce flex but I'm just not sure if it actally does or not. Also anybody have their 4pt. rear bar? Impressions and opinions are all I really need BTW this would probally be for a 94 sol si(d16z6).

Here's what I'm planning on doing, agin this is only if I even get the car!
ASR/ITR 23mm rear swaybar setup
Omni street coilovers(or something comparable in price)
front & rear upper strut bars
4pt. NRG front lower "h" brace
OEM front swaybar with upgraded ES bushings.

I'm planning on doing these mods based on what I've done with my hatch, or wished I had done. Luckily my current project is an EG hatch so I'll know my way around the car because essentially it's the same chasis.

i don't know if i would spend $300 dollars on a front 3 point, however i made my stock bar a 3 point and i did feel a difference and it only cost me $20 to do

The 3 and 4 point pieces give you better bracing, but those off-the-shelf pieces aren't worth the price. Those are a combination of function and show. There are many better bang-for-buck suspension and chassis mods you could do for that price. It's actually cheaper to get a roll bar and have bracing added to it than to buy a couple of JDM-yo strut bars.
