    Strut Tower Bar-

    I put in my DC Sports tower bar, last night. I just wanted to see what some of you who already have them think of them. I haven't tested it yet, I'm waitin till it gets a little dryer so I can really whip some corners.

    It was $150, and i am happy to say it works really nicely. I went out last night and blasted around the west hills, and i can tell a big difference in the front end when I corner, the car never sways or rolls at all, I do loose traction some times but thats corning way to fast around the 25mph curves, it hit one at 50 and almost lost it, thank god for down shifting.

    It won't fit, at least without some modification. One of these will though:

    Mine was $170, and get this I waited 3 months for the damn thing. Mine is also DC. It's night and day diff as far as handling goes, well worth the money.

    I finally got mine last week. I tried to order it from Nopi last summer but it was B/O so they just cancelled the order instead of informing me when it came in. So i recently tried Options Auto Salon and they said it was B/O but it came about a week later so im happy. I may put it on this weekend when i finish the Big Brake Conversion. I definatly noticed the difference with the rear strut bar so i would expect the same from the front.
