Any opinion on NRG, Megan or Tanabe strut bars for an Accord 97?

 

look at design, aluminium bending is very low tech, even some taiwanese knock off special company could do with a high consistant quality.

look up for eibach's one piece design vs. flex joint(with a jam nut) aka ebay strut


but again, the gain is min. on most honda chassis.

 

Also, from what I've gathered, ppl recommend ones that mount to all 3 of the strut bar tower as opposed to the ones that only mount to 2.

Umm, 3 strut towers? You mean both strut towers and the firewall, right?

 

anybody heard of this brand 'zenden'?

......... Utilize all three mounting bolts (pillow mounts) on top of the strut tower.

I would disagree because it's used to increase chassis rigity and reduce body flex. If you can use these properties and make your car feel more solid and handle better, then IMO they are worth it. I installed them on my accord when I had them and had a noticable handling difference and I also installed them on my civic...great bar that is often overlooked.

But go with a solid design as most ebay crap is just that, crap.

D'oh! Didn't even cross my mind that he could have been referring the mounting bolts.

Whoops, my bad, long night and I didn't check what I was typing.
