Never seen the carbing bar, but I had a Neuspeed USB on my 04 and it was incredible the way it helped on turns..definately considering this mod for my car in the future.

Gil, since this is not a one piece bar, how solid is it on the car after installed?

don't you buy suspension bars for how they help the ride, not how they look? I hope you don't do a rear sway bar, lower tie bars or an H-brace. You'll never see them until you lay on your back under the car.

Mike, the piece is amazing. High quality welds and then once you tighten the bolts on the ends it fits on there tight and snug! and for those of you who want to be "show offs" on your cowl there are two little side pieces that snap off, and the little sliding piece that says "frame number" on it. remove those and then you can see the strut bar from there.
