Looking good, It will be interesting to see how that adjuster works. With the bar being tall it may tend to force it up to a bow. Might consider a version with a Rod end at both ends too. Keep us posted how it works.

Well that **** aint gonna work!!!!!!!! Just like you were thinking scott, when i started preloading it, it started bending down & then was touching the hard vent line ontop the tank. Well i guess i gotta do something different. Thats why they call it R & D.

Dammit, I didn't want to be right. I had my fingers crossed this would work.

The fix 1 piece bar looks like it will be a lot more effective than that one brother. I like your original design.

Yea im sticking with the solid bar design right now. Until i figure out another way. you know making the bar acouple of mm shorter, will make the bar preload when the bar gets sucked down w/the strut bolts.

HHhhmmmm yeah... I'm using the Supra TT front strut tower bar. I'd say its probably 1/8th or maybe 1/4" inch longer. I had to put one side in then push and slide through the other side... Just an FYI on that.... You said you have tested your original design and works. You might have hit the spot on that one

- My initial review of "spdrcr771" rear strut bar. Been having it on the car for a couple days now and it perform great. I took the corner real hard many times and the car felt stiffer.


- The strut bar itself is very solid. Looks very beefy in person. The two mounts is light weight and sturdy.

-Installation is easy.

- The only problem is there is a rubbing against a vapor lines of the gas tank on the right side and on the top. I put a rubber piece to cushion it.


-Overall, it a great Rear strut tower bar. I approve it.

Thanks very much JamesN for the good review. You may want to flip the bar to the other side, one side has alittle less angle & is just alittle longer to clear that line. It looks like in pic #2 that you need to flip it.
