Sup fellas I was looking into getting a Cusco strut bar but I was kinda liking the Greddy strut bar I don't know much about how good Greddy makes strut bars which is why I'm posting. If anyone has used it and have some type of feedback about the product please post a reply.
 
ebay cheapo bars. they are all the same.
 
No it's just saying that name brand strut bars...that don't play as important a role as wheels do... are overpriced if you buy them from greddy/nismo etc. but ya you always take a chance on them not fitting.

I bought a set (front and rear) of elcheapo stb from ebay for about $60 shipped. i cant remember what brand they were but they seemed to fit pretty ok. but i cant say they made much of a difference. i've had them for about a year, they havent started bending yet and i've driven the car pretty hard, regularly. if you wanna get stbs dont waste your money on "namebrandones". save your money and grab some cheap ones..or if your real ghetto make your own. invest in some anti-sway bars.

That's like saying all wheels are the same. A rim is a rim do you want a look alike Advans or 5 zigen?
nope, its not like saying that. if you knew how little of a different strut bars make youd realize you shouldnt go wasted hundreds of dollars on them. i have an ebay cheapo up front... fit fine and hasnt bent.

and sway bars are definetly the way to go. those actually help out quite a bit.
 
I've been around in here for awhile now... but I'm still a bit of a new-b at heart... what do the sway bars help with? Thanks
 
stiffening up your car. same basic idea as strut bars, but they are underneath and make a good difference.

i went from a stock front bar, a busted rear bar, and stock spring and struts to kyb agx, sportline springs, and suspension tech sway bars all in one day. talk about a difference.

zey - for chassis bracing just go with Cusco. you can't go wrong. the quality is simply excellent.
o... i thought u just meant normal strait strut bars. i have heard those help more than normal bars but still not a huge difference. in that case... that might be cool to try if you got the money
