Suspension Tech's Lower strut and sway combo??
Anyone got this or better yet, anyone think that it is worth it? I don't know if you need a lower strut bar if you get a sway bar who has an opinion?

Re: Suspension Tech's Lower strut and sway combo?? (Spade)
For a street driven car with spring rates below 600 lbs or so...
Do you mean a lower tie bar? If it's for a an EK (96+) Civic, then it's pretty much a waste of $$$ and weight. Even a "upper" strut tower brace isn't going to make much difference. On the EG or 92-95 Chassis, CAD design is not quite as good so there's a bit more flex. An upper brace can make a difference, but the lower brace is still sort of a waste IMO.
