View Full Version : question: part
Apostle 07-25-2007, 10:14 AM Anyone know a manufacturer of the 4 point strut bar?
I saw two pictures: one was red and RX8Honey posted the link the site, looked close to a V frame strut
but the second picture was silver and made more of an A frame strut.
anyone know of this product? and yes, i know my description is off, and yes i did a search, and no i dont care if this is a repost.
thanks in advance

Silver_Surfer 07-26-2007, 08:42 PM Dam those bars looks solid! Too solid. Anyone of cracking issues or is there still room for some flex in other areas?
Apostle 07-27-2007, 06:12 AM Woot!
that front one, Mazdaspeed. Happen to have a part #?
I cannot find it anywhere on any AM parts place.

How much difference is there between the 2, I know ones over engine and ones under car, but whats the difference, is one better than the other ?
mysql101 07-29-2007, 10:15 AM stock, your car has a 2 point brace in the engine bay, and none in the trunk.
stock, your car has a few under chassis braces too.
These things just replace the existing parts. How much more rigid they make your car is anybody's guess.

Well I know that much LAWL What I don't know is the difference between just getting under or over style which is better if you were to get just one, I wasn't really sure if they did the same thing just bolted in different locations, or if they worked together :)
