Nope. Well, the effect would be negligible and I doubt you'd actually feel or notice any difference with gussets. Triangulated strut braces stop a whole lot more flex. Trust me on this one. Pretty much the first rule to make any frame rigid (or more rigid) is to triangulate shit.

I'll still do it.
I flagged stitch welding and engine bay paint for now. I'll just give it a clean up as the paint seems mint under all the shit.
Found a sweet glitter purple for it when I swap engines again though.
And I will be doing the same
Hopefully it can take it..
Engine in today hopefully! Just got to wack flywheel on and clutch (Thanks Danny and Luke <333)
Would my tank have baffles like the JDM 86 tanks? I hope so
yeah it would have.
knowing your luck/history the 4age wont last long
the whore of a 4a will love it!
good to see progress man..
but i shat myself when i saw the engine pics from the last page, thought they were of the new motor haha
someone needs to trim their fingernails
LOL.
So anyways it's all in and running, the clutch slave pin doesn't push the fork all the way, so no clutch ATM, I will be checking it out tomorrow.. Need to mount oil cooler better, lines are in a funny angle ATM.
Started first go and it goes well, I was expecting it to be slower.
Thanks to Aaron, Bob, Mereki for all the help
So keen for touge!
