LAST EDITED ON 11-Nov-01 AT 05:10 PM (PST)yes.. i recomend them. They will be a great improvement in handling by tightening the frame up and such.. also try http://www.espeedgogo.com.. they offer some that work just great and arent too expensive.. look for them selling some off ebay.. that will help you get them cheaper too..

Get them ! You should get all 4 positions FU, FL(only available at RRE) RU and RL. . . Also if you can find one, get the Neuspeed front upper strut bar because you can have that one and another FU strut bar.

Sorry, let me clear things up now that I am not at work. FU is Front Upper, FL is Front Lower, RU os Rear upper and RL is Rear lower. Neuspeed makes a STB(Strut Tower Bar) for our car that goes on the bolts that are on the shock tower behind the strut mount. The bar goes back against the firewall. You can have that FU bar and another one. As long as it is a correct fit, any STB will do the job. I spent $89 on the neuspeed one and so far they are the only company that made that design and now they have dicontinued it. Look for them on Ebay for $100+!! I found Pilot Motorsports RU and RL at www.jcwhitney.com around $60 each and I bought my Tenzo R locally for $75.
