Default Which Strut Bar?



skunk 2 rear upper

or



JDM ITR rear upper

i like the ITR one because i wouldn't have to cut my consoles, but it looks like the skunk 2 would do its job better because of the straight through design

No get the Mugen strut (285.00$)
Well the Skunk 2 are basically the same as the Spoon struts.
Skunk 2 it's a perfect quality/price option.
The ITR strut is still great, but not as stiff as the Skunk 2 strut bar.

Maybe I'm wrong, but doesn't the itr rear cost about 200?

i wouldn't get any of the benen strut bars. i talked to my friend that races auto x/ road racing and he said the benen bars are more of an appearance mod rather than a performance mod. he knows his stuff and i take his word for it.

i think the ITR bar would do just fine. that's what i'll be buying.

I have Skunk upper and lower rear, as well as front, and they work and fit very well. I say get the Skunk, but it's your $$$.

Yeah, why not the generic ebay ones? I'm usually pretty wary of the generic stuff but I got them and they work as advertised. I don't hear creeks and body flexing noises in my car anymore. Handling is a bit tighter too.

neuspeed fronts are dope! skunks are also nice quality bars. i dont really like the style of the itr bars. but hey whatever soots you. if your not really gonna put the bars to the test dont worry about what quality or brand you get, just save some cash and get one of those package deals off of ebay.
