RJ is a sackswinger that just repeats what the "real" racers tell him 
and I definately disagree that hondas arent flexible messes
A hatchback is a big, open box. Connecting any opposing part of that box together will in fact decrease deflection and flex.
Out of that group of parts, this is IMO the most useful.
The suspension lower tie bars I am not experienced with, but bracing loaded suspension members from deflection is allright by me.
The front strut brace is the most useless of the bunch, since on a honda the strut is not a load bearing member, and the firewall is right there to box the chassis.
now the question is, are they worth $80?
Possibly, but on a limited budget, buying a bigger rear swaybar (ITR? GSR?) will give you much much better handling gains.
(improve the dynamic suspension before the static)
