Seam weldinging, makes a difference?

[Mole]

Hi there new to hondas, i've been talking to a few peeps and have hit a block, if i can't find the right ek9 type r for me, then i'm thinking of converting an ek4, i'm definatly going to the track, i've put drifting in my
180sx off for a while, so i need to do something. Does the seam welding make that much more of a difference to the regidity* of the car? not sure if i wanna run a full interiour but if it's out then i'd think of getting it welded up.

Sorry for the rant but can anyone shed some light

Id go for some serious roll cage and bracing before any seam welding..
maybe down the line , a year or two when the shell becomes weak from the stiff chassis.. you will notice it then..

I've been told the ek9-r's are seam welded, does it make much of a difference compared to the ek4 when on the track? with regards to roll/stiffness?
