is a strut bar just a strut bar?

Ok...not including $200 spoon/mugen strut bars...are the lower ones all the same shit? meaning a fucking pole is a fucking pole?

if you get one or more, get ones that don't have adjustability to them... that just adds slop to them and renders them usless

a strut bar is a strut bar, as long as its not flimsy. ideally, the best strut bar would be a solid piece of tube steel or thick aluminum bolted or welded directly to the strut tower.

Hmmm...some of these ones on ebay say they dont fit 88-91 DX models, but they fit every other model. That's weird.

Get a Neuspeed one, they are non-adjustable and don't bend at all.

Yup...them or Sprint bars..I got a neuspeed because it is solid.. Sprint's are supposed to be cheaper versions of Neuspeeds, but I found a Neuspeed at groupbuycenter.com that was the same price as Sprint.

The adjustable ones are pretty useless IMO.
