stitch welding is done by quite a number of professional teams as the bang/buck of added rigidity to the amount of weight added is very good.

however, an average driver, such as most of zilvia's user base, won't be able to tell the difference other than placebo effect between a stitch welded car and one that isn't.

Unless the car is completely straight, alignment on point, and all the bushings and shit are replaced so they aren't blown and sloppy, you won't notice much, if even then.

This is the same as adding foam to the frame rails to stiffen it. An average driver wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a car with and without.

I personally doubt anyone can tell the difference between driving a stitch welded chassis and a non welded chassis.

I personally do it to all my cars because it's something I can do for free while I'm waiting on parts

pro racing drivers help develop and tune their race cars man, they know how to feel for that kinda shit

but like I said, in a car that has sloppy bushings and stuff, stitch welding ain't fixing much.

I found this and need some suggestion. I have a front end noise that might broken spot welds.

1. Will I be able to see them? (Are they under seam glues? all of them?)
2. Where would they be located? (in engine bay, under wheel well, under fender?)

I'd like to just weld from under the wheel well to add support to the fender/wheel area.
Does anyone think that will work? Or would i need to pull the fenders off?

I really dont wana remove the fenders, basically. I'd rather pull the motor than the fenders haha

here are the insides of my car, looks normal to me:

Hmm. I just did new tie rods and aligned it. It stays perfect. Whatever the problem is, it isn't part of the alignment system or whatever. It must be the car itself flexing over the rigid body of the alignment parts. whatever thats called
