Default is it worth it?

im trying to justify if spending the money for a sturt bar is really worth it...i think it would be more practical to invest in a stabilizer sway bar...when i look at it i just dont feel like the upper strut bar is really that effective but i dont know so i would like someone with experience in this department to give me a pretty decent assessment of this product...

strut bars do stiffen the chassis, but in my experience it is only one piece of the puzzle as suspensions really work as a "system". I did however remember "feeling" a slight diffence when I got my first one back in the day. Also matters what "quality" the bar you purchase is..car parts are like home theatre systems, you get what you pay for (that isent to say you should pay too much) hit up the honda-tech marketplace. the sways are a good investment, and one I would recomend -the two would compliment nicely!

do you have a type r? if not, then get a type r rear sway bar. strut bars should be one of the last mods you do to "complete" your suspension.

or you could do what most people do and buy it to make you feel cooler when displaying a stock motor to all your friends.
