When I installed the front upper strut bar on my dads 2003 Nissan Sentra XE and when I installed the Carbing front upper strut bar the front of the car felt really rigid/ responsive. Less Chassis flex, huh... His car still had a lot of that as well. But since I didn't drive my friends Corolla before the instalation I didn't get the full "image".
