Ok so i recently brought a 4 piece strut bars for my civic 97 now i have one problem which is probably going to make me look so stupid but heck i'm willing to take my hits and learn as i go on... so where do you put all 4 strut bars on the car i know u put one in the hood but from there where do i go

I guess if they were cheap as some of them are then but in all honesty, the best way to go is with a pivotless bar.

You could have used that money to buy a rear swaybar and made more of a difference than all of those pieces of **** put together, but you have fun pretending your car handles better with those Enjoy.

so even with all of that setup it wouldnt make as much diffrence as a 22mm sway bar

i guess that falls under the learning he was talking about.

Those strut bars are really cheap and look so whack. I was going to get them, but their looks prevented me from getting them. These look so much better.



I think I'm going to have my friend weld me some custom made front upper strut bar and paint it myself.

WTF ... that better be a joke !!!!

stick with one piece... they are better, but still strut bars do little to nothing in terms of performance gains... especially if they are multi piece

werd, if ur gonna get bars, get one piece design ones. but i would invest into a rear sway bar first before doin the strut bars. bigger difference with that then all those bars combine.

im with him, then, i would suggest the password jdm strutbars if you REALLY want them, they are a solid one piece design

I NEVER SAIS I BOUGHT THAT CHEAP ****
id rather make my own out of a piece of metal

M1SCO15

seems like you know your **** from now on i'll search before i buy... so sway bars is what i should be buying? What makes the strut bars not good like you say they are not? I'm trying to learn and like i said when i started the topic i'll take my shots and look like an idiot now!!!

black94boost

I told my friend I wanted to get strut bars too, but he told me that they don't do much to stock suspension. Recommended that I upgrade my suspension first, like sway bars, shocks, springs, etc. then add on strut bars if I want.
