EK Front Strut Bar

[TypeRice]

anyone know how to put this on?

do you just use the existing bolts from under the bonnet and bolt the strut bar on ?

it doesnt affect the steering wheel right?

thanks man..

yikes i dont even have n e of the tools required to perform a DIY..

btw i heard that it can improve handling, but how so???

i haf no idea.. i got da strut bar for free from da guy i bought da car off.

strut bars help improve chassis rigitdity by bracing the strut towers together.

the more rigid it the less flex you get etc :thumbsup:

it all helps mate :)

if u can id recommend gettin a nice swaybar to compliment the brace

would it realli make a big difference if i had a strut bar or not?

like would it be noticable when driving? or is it just in the mind ? haeheahae

some ppl love em and some ppl hate em. imo it makes a diffence yes.

if your serious about suspension then go for it, if not chuck it.

my friend just told me that my shocks are stock, so i dont need to put in da strut.. coz it wont make a difference..

*scratches head*

it will make a differnece cause ur chassy will be stiffer, it will help but dont expect to have magical handling abilities now from it

[muhhan]

Just stick it on. Put it this way, nothing bad's going to happen from putting it on and if you don't like it then you can just take it off. No harm done.

EG and EK civic are the same pattern and will fit either way. You need to get a new mechanic. And dont even HINT of selling as a newcomer.

It will fit your car.

OEM EG and EK strut bars look identicle. Its only 4 bolts so just undo it yourself and put the bolts back on. I've taken mine on and off heaps of times. :thumbsup:

How will it affect your handling?? It won't have a great deal of effect but there will be a difference. It doesn't matter wether you've got stock shocks/springs/struts watever, it still helps.

Throw it on. You might as well.
