Thank you

For a REAL functional bar, you'd wanna build 3pt unit that connects to the firewall as well.

In all honesty, most bars are for the looks. They're better than nothing and look cool tho. Ive even got a rear bar for sum retarded reason...its SERIOUSLY not needed in these cars

Sooooo, if you want it stiff, Connect it to the firewall as well.

It would look like a triangle: A standard STB, but have bars run from the shock towers to the firewall too.

Take a look at REAL Rally car suspension systems to get an idea.

I have a similar thread on this page defore I saw yours, let me know what you think.
my car is the development car for the new carbing strut bar. first prototype should be here in a few weeks and production should start soon after that so expect some by earliest before end of the year.
