strut bar test

how would i test my car's performance before i install the back and front struts? if that badly worded: you would dyno your car before you put a turbo on it, then dyno it again. that same consept but with strut bars.

g-meter... iono where you get them or how to, but you can do it like that... as in

.67 lateral g
1.00 lateral g

go race it around some turns then install the bars after the cars steering should feel more heavy and presice.

would i even need the front and back both? or just one or the other?

get both bars if you can.

get both bars if you can.

well, what does one do that the other doesn't?

one only stiffens the front one only stiffens the rear.

ok, i'll do that then. should i get rear ones on http://www.roadraceengineering.com/3gsuspension.htm (bottom of the page) or get some different ones?
also anti-sway for an rs yay or nay?

yes get them both.

RECAP: front and rear strut, YES
anti-sway, YES
...will do.

should the front struts be a easy to install than the rear ones are?

A front anti-sway bar would increase understeer...right?

A front anti-sway bar would increase understeer...right?

would i get front or rear anti-sway? sry if noob question

if i get the front and rear strut bars, will the performance difference be dramatic or will i barely notice them?

A front anti-sway bar would increase understeer...right?
yep

if i get the front and rear strut bars, will the performance difference be dramatic or will i barely notice them?

you will notice a difference. similarly you will notice a difference if you get lowering springs or stickier tires.

On a FWD you want a Rear sway bar to decrease understeer.

ok....i drove my car today, i took some hard turns but i'm not sure what im looking for, plz help.

...Have you installed the bars yet? You'll feel a difference after you install them.

The best thing you can do is install a rear sway bar.

well i haven't installed the strut bars yet im trying to get a feel for the car now, before i install the struts. for a better feel of the difference the bars make.

The best thing you can do is install a rear sway bar.

where can i find anti-sway bars for n rs?

iirc you need special brackets from a GS-Gts for a rear sway bar on an RS eclipse

tearstone and rre both carry the ST rear sway bar, which i believe eclipsed4utoo loves

i still need to get one
