Front strut tower bar
Sunday, March 20, 2005 5:42 PM
I am going to buy one just to stiffen things up a bit, but i have noticed a range of like $30 to $150 Do the expensive work that much better? I just dont see how one could be so much better then another. let me know, and opinions on brands would be great, thanks

will front and rear strut bars make a noticeable difference in handling or anything for that matter if they are the only mod?

Your wheels won't turn if you put a cheap one on the front.

my friend baught an ebay one and his wheels turned, his was 15$. I bought the FD and it looks the same to me. The upper strut tower bar only connects things up top, has nothing to do with the wheels turning.

Your friend must have gotten a really good deal then! I've never heard of a cheap one having a Canewter valve on them so the wheels would turn properly!!! Great buy man!

hey My Cars slower than your Car!!, quit messing with people, you're only confusing them which doesn't make life any easier.

and if you feel like being funny, you could at least spell it right...it's canuter valve

Nate, to answer your question, there is pretty much no difference between cheap and expensive strut tower bars. in fact, you could probably make your own and it would do just as well. just make sure it fits correctly - some fit better than others.

Eh, I was gonna let it go after the first one, but they fell for it, so I HAD to go on. You would do the same thing.

i just assumed you were talking about something under the body, i know what they are and what they do, i just thought expensive ones would have have to be expensive for a reason, but i guess not. Any way, i i have strut bars in the front and the rear will it do anything for the handling?

No, I was just being stupid. Guess I made someone mad. More Org drama.

I noticed a little difference, more control when corning, and both wheels stay on the ground better.

As for price... In my opinion a $15 one is as good as a $100 one... its just a stiff peice of metal. And yes, you probly can make your own with some L or C track.

Didnt fool me. I knew you had no idea what you were talking about. Still trying to figure out the point on why you even tried.

Only for the front...you can still use them on the rear strut bar, and also as a nice accent to your valve caps on your tires
