it can't hurt it and its only adding more rigidity to the chassis at a high stress point, take that as you will

Re: my $8 strut bar from ebay .. pic

no not really you can just tell if your car rolls or handles better...alittle diffrent situation but...kinda like running 7psi then going to 12psi on your turbo...u'll def notice the diff...specially if you do drift or autox your car

Re: my $8 strut bar from ebay .. pic

sorry to everyone i just confused...was talking about this quote from GSR...didnt notice the page 2...lol sorry
"the thing that sucks about bars is that, unless you have raced the same couse under the same conditions with the only variable being the strut bars, you have no way of measuring other than the old butt g-meter."

Re: my $8 strut bar from ebay .. pic

strut bars? yea i got them in the front and rear of my fastback... the responce is quicker since there is slightly less body roll on high speed corners. You'll definitely feel it if you've done autoX... the left-to-right and right-to-left repetitive corners feel much better. You don't get too much lag from the previous corner when you're trying to turn into the next one immediately after.

i'd say it's really worth the 20 bucks i spent on it. haha (ebay)
