Strut bars*

[lowlife9]

well like i said since the strut bar basically does nothing to the 7th gen Neuspeed is the best bet. does Carbing even make a 3 point strut bar for 7th gens because ive never seen one before.

A strut bar does do something to the 7th gen. A strut bar will make a difference on any car that doesn't already have a strut bar. Just because a chassis design gets better (generally speaking) with newer models, doesn't mean that there isn't room for improvement.


The carbing design was mentioned just to exploit the weaker design of the neuspeed bar. I haven't seen a carbing piece specifically designed for the 7th gen, but i have seen better designs with more strength than the neuspeed bar you're mentioning. I should've worded it better, but oh well.

Keep in mind that the 7th gen civic is extremely close to being a rsx

Pull that crap ass d17 out and swap the subframe to a rsx subframe and boom, everything from the rsx can swap right over. So your front lower half will handle like a rsx, leaving all the flex on the upper portion which could use some chassis bracing (a rsx-s comes with a front upper shock tower bar....i wonder why
