Lower strut bar

Ive heard good things about them from EG civic drivers, but some terrible things from MK3 drivers...Do they affect the performance well on 2nd gens?

RE: Lower strut bar

I haven't heard anything "bad" for bracing the rear on an AWD. I can see why the RWD guys hate it, they need the front braced more than the rears. I would suggest getting a front upper too.

RE: Lower strut bar

For the rear lower it will depend on your exhaust if you can use one. The shop I take my car to said not many DSM's use the lower, it is more of a civic item. I got a set of Megan F/R upper bars and it came witha Megan Lower tie bar. I have the GReddy EVO2, and guess what it won't work, so I sold it. I also learned that with the GReddy EVO2 exhaust you can NOT use a Suspension Techniques rear sway bar, you have to go with the RMDSM.
