Because it's shiny and comes in bubble wrap?

You leave my "ACS" pedals out of this, you bastard! ;)

I misspoke a little earlier I suppose: you should logically be able to feel a well designed strut bar on the street but on stock suspension the difference is going to be mainly placebo, especially if it's cheap crap. A car with upgraded bushings and upper strut bearings would probably have a "feelable" difference if the bar were a Zen/Mason or a Sparco (the budget option.) That said, I have Sparco and I'm pushing tire (neutral camber) before I ever get to the point that I feel it makes a difference (215 Azenis start letting go around .8 G or so.) Track settings with some front camber added and that's up to around .95 G (G-tech numbers) and I'm glad I have the car braced because the last thing I'd want is something squirming.

+1 on ingenuity but the design should have been researched a bit more. Maybe try to design version 2 using a tried and true design as a reference point. Just my .02

uhh.... is this a joke? sorry bro but it looks like poop. maybe on a honda or a nissan, but something so shady and ghetto on a e30... NO

I may be mistaken, but didn't he note that he was going to improve his design? innovation has to start somewhere. I commend him for that. Keep on keepin on

So I have this idea for a new thing that would make transport easier: it would be round and we could roll stuff on it, I'm going to call it the wheel...

Not to seem assholeish, but is there some reason why your so attached to this argument? I can understand placing/stating your opinion, but leave it at that. I mean, so the guy built himself a strut bar...is he trying to force it on your vehicle? is he trying to sell it? No. Is he stating that it's the best that money could buy? No. why don't you let him do his thing and you do yours instead of crapping all over his thread and attacking people that are bringing a constructive air to the place.

This i agree with^ And my suspension isn't stock although i do need to do bushings soon. Id also like to add that i am a cheap bastard which leads me to innovations in many forms of life. Also you don't know the half of how i use and drive my car and i guarantee that on the right stretch of country road i put the same amount of G's down as you, at least when i was running Azennis. I plan to autocross it soon and if the strut bar doesn't brake a will consider it a success and i do feel a difference although it is slight, probably because i had no sway bar until this.

And honestly, I think my strut bar looks fuckin diesel. HAHAHA
