You do a nice job.

Sorry for the stupid question, what is the use of a strunt bar ? To stiffen the rear of the car ?

Yes, to stiffen the rear of the car aiming directly at the two tower struts that are hidden inside the metal frame. You can find the exact rear strut bar from Cusco and Ultra Racing for about $180. Their construction/design is very similar to what I have put together. Just trying to save everyone some $.

CUSCO REAR STRUT BRACE

  • Strut Tower Bars eliminate chassis flex at the most vital area of the car - between the strut towers, essentially to prevent the misalignment of suspension mounting points experienced during high cornering loads.





Ultra Racing

Installed Vehicle Safety Bars Gives You
SOLID, STABLE & SAFETY

Vehicle Safety Bars are being designed to absorb the impact and minimizing the possible damages due to the chassis in an event of collision. With promising characteristic, Vehicle Safety Bars will not only provide solid handling but also a shield to the passengers.





It's up to the driver of the car.

If you're rarely taking any hard turns, you shouldn't bother installing this.

If you're making hard turns occasionally, this MIGHT improve your handling base on Ultra Racing and Cusco. MIGHT, meaning you might feel a difference. Some people might feel a difference and some people will not feel anything.

This is not for looks, if you believe so.
