Installing Front strut bar..

[vtc]

Hey ive just got my front strut bar but ive run into two main problems.

1. Can the bolts on the strut towers be done by hand? they seem awfully tight and wont budge at all. Do i have to you a compressor gun or something?

2. One of the bolts is rounded off.. Dont know why, is there a way to get this undone or am i screwed.

ANy pics of the strut?, is it a strut bar or strut brace?

[vtc]

its a normal ebay cheapo strut bar.

do i have to undo the strut tower nut to loosen the other 2?
at the moment they just aint budging at all..

if its a strut bar then u have to drill 2 holes on each side in order to put the strut bar on, if its the other type thaT goes over the top of the suspension then im not sure

DONT DO NO DRILLING :S

ok make sure u use like da ratchet socket set to remove the bolts from the strut top..

my brothers r33 was REALLI TIGHT and it took both of us to take the damn thing off i pulled it while he pushed it...
Just give it a go buddy, and WDF da other bolt has been rounded=== ur screwed unless there is sum form of "non rounded bit" the socket can hold on to....
uh huh- make sure ur turning da right way too LOL
