Default strut bar Q & A

ok. my question (i'm oblivious to strut bars), is what would help my crx benefit the most? do i need rear upper, rear lower, front upper, front lower? would all of them benefit me? it seems to me that only front strut bars would help, as the crx is FWD, therefore stiffening the chassis in back wouldn't yield much result.....? could somebody shed some light on this for me? thanks guys, as always.

screw all the strut bar crap get a lower front SWAY bar.

BTW they are called:
strut bars - front (inside the engine bay)
- rear (in the back of your trunk/hatch)
- lower rear tie bar (bottom of the car near the arms)
sway bars -front
-rear

do search and you'll find the answer. HTH

a front strut bar is going to tighten up your steering. a rear strut bar will tighten the rear and allow the car to rotate easier. as said, you'll notice more with bigger sway bars to reduce body roll.
