Just installed my Mugen rear STB
My Mugen rear STB has been sleeping under my bed for the past 2 months, but it's awake now. I finally got around to installing it a few days ago.
Here it is out of the box
Foam bar to protect against junk flying in the trunk
Show mode
Battle mode
Close-up
After the install, I took it out for a spin around the block and notice that it stiffened up the rear by quite a bit. The car just felt more rigid overall, and steering feel became somewhat more responsive. I was actually quite surpised because honestly, I wasn't expecting to be able to feel any noticable effect.
BTW, here is my old Mugen front STB. It was reluctantly sold a few weeks ago to make way for a Carbing 3pt bar. I was actually quite sad to see it go, but I needed some money to order some brake parts.

Damn took you that long to put it in? Yeesh.
Does it clank? Looks like a solid piece.
My friend has the Tanabe Sustec one and it clanks like crazy.

Nice Bar
I'm surprised you felt the rigidness. It's not something that's usually very noticable. But good deal!
