so far got tein basics...but im looking to keep the chasis uniformed now in the form of upper struts (front and back) and below as well.....im looking for an upper rear strut that links in between the rear passengers' seatbelt connecting points above the seats.....ive seen them online but forgot the site they were on...PLEASEEE help

 

its called a c pillar bar. http://www.g2ic.com there is a guy that runs rev-auto sells those bars.

 

dude thank you so much...my mom told me i could get somethin for xmas...so im dying for this...thanks man i appreciate it

 

C pillar bar.... rumors have it that they don't really make a diff.

Bars that DO make a noticable diff:
Front upper strut--stock GSRs will do.
Bigger rear SWAY in place of the stock 14mm.
Rear upper strut (not a cheap ebay one).

Stiffer springs and adjustable shock dampening


Then you have the Miracle X Bar... That one works good.

 

right now for my suspension setup ive got teinbasics and cuz its a gsr...the stock front upper strut...getting a skunk2 front upper and the c-pillar.then going to do under chasis **** like camber kit, front and rear sways..just lookin for the added touches of handling

Well...
Let's see, you don't need to upgrade the front sway. Just the rear to a USDM ITR 22mm sway bar with either a Beaks or BSQ kit. If you upgrade the front, you will have oversteer... The front is thick as is.

How are the Tein Basics? Too bad no dampening. All I have are Tein HAs Instead of getting the C-pillar, why not a rear upper strut bar?

If you want to beef up your handling, then I suggest new suspension bushings like and Enery Suspension set.

 

fyi; if you truely want your car t handle. sell the basics and get somthing with some agressive spring rates. omni is insanely cheap for what they are 12/10k owns.

 

I agree with NightRider-gsR, the ITR sway bar is probably the best bang for the buck. And on a side note, weren't c-pillar bars first created so that a camera could be mounted on them?

yes they were. look at what part of the chasis the c pillar bad is connecting. maybe it's just me, but i'm thinkin it's not gonna help a whole lot. it's not worth loosing my rear seats in my daily driver

 

well.. get an itr rear sway bar first... cheap and give it

 

i personally love the basics...this is my first time modifying a car so im doing modifications that won't sacrifice anything.....on side roads they are a little teethrattling...but on a nice street i can hit turns without much body roll....the ride height adjustability is nice too.......in all honesty they did save my life....i had to make a really sharp turn at 60mph or so becasue someone cut me off and i went right aroudn them without even budging in my seat.......on another note..t.he c pillar bar doesnt require removal of the backseat....and i cant get the trunk tie bar because i ahve a custom system in the back and the amp rack lifts up and lies even with the rear strut casings....the installer didnt listen to me...so its either modify the amp risers or go with a c pillar....

 

i didn't say you have to remove the rear seat for a c pillar bar but it makes it so the rear seats are NOT safe to ride in.

 

true....easy way to avoid unwanted passengers....lmao

anyone got any specifics on a skunk2 rear upper strut....is the install easy i heard you have to modify the inside panels and ish
