I asked around before I bought them. The general consencus was that they kick ***. I installed them on a completely stock suspension and noticed a slight difference. It doesn't replace good rims/tires and suspension, doesn't help you power around corners or anything, but the chasis definetly feels more solid. For the $40 they cost, I'd buy them again in a heartbeat. Got my rims in the garage waiting on the tires and the shocks/springs in the closet waiting on the camber kit. Hope to do it all at once to save expense and feel a much bigger difference over stock :]. On a sidenote, anyone know where I could pickup an integra rear disc conversion? I've found a couple kits, but they're always missing the m/c, or the prop valve, etc.

From what I HEARD, its realy flimsy..as in the material is really weak. I would reccomend the Carbing 3 point front strut bar..just very pricey.

look for typeR replicas...they are very stiff and have the same construction...most of the sets are hollow w/o reinforcement. the typeR has two reinforcement bars inside
