I know exactly what you're talking about, but it kills the poor chassis.

no need for anything except like high high high hgih high end racing.

As in the expandable foam stuffs in every crevice? I would imagine it would do the trick but as Matt said it would kill it. There would be no flexing, only cracking of the metal at any weak point.

what about just the subframe of the 240? wouldent it help the unibody hold better?

Whoa! Down boy......

Ok, the foam that you can buy at Lowes/Home Depot/etc is not the same as the race foam that Matt is referring to. The high end race stuff is engineered to expand only so much, as not to damage the car, while strengthening the chassis - and is extremely expensive. The over-the-counter stuff is made to fill cracks in concrete, walls, wood, etc where conduit or other shit goes through a hole and has a different expansion rate.. Dont bother using it, you'll only throw away $$ on the shit, and not get any return - except maybe bulging or cracked body parts.

Hope that answers your question....K?
