Megan Racing Race spec Strut bar Install
Ok, can I just say tha Megan Racing is awesome, BUT... they could have designed the brackets a little better for their Race spec strut bar. The top backet should have been left open instead of being closed so that the bolt on the right side of the car doesnt need to be removed as the clearance is horrible (see image below). Other than that the Bar is beautiful and lightweight and provides a very stiff ride. I look forward to the rear bar being released soon.

pop the covers off of the windshield wipers you'll see 1 14mm bolt on each. take those off, then you'll see a few pop clips and a few clips under the big black shield thing that covers teh bottom of the windshield, undo all clips, then pull up the middle and BAM lots of room to work with :D takes abotu 5 min to do (once you get a hang of it) and is even faster to put back in :D

yea, i did over exaggerate. it's a substantial improvement in reducing body roll but not by as much as i hoped. I only took it for a spin around the block, but once i drove it to work today it wasnt as much as i thought. anyway, i can take some daytime pics. thanks for fixing that problem by the way. I think it's the site i used to upload.

My bad, correction on my last post about the incorrect terminology. Improved chassis rigidity is what i meant. Got it confused with sway bars...
