Here's where I bought it from, small picture:

And on my car:

I like the neupseed bette because its one solid bar, no joints or hinges, just one solid piece. When I installed it I had to remove the top shock bolts and jack up the car and seperate the car from the coilover in order for it to fit. Something about it working only under pressure load.

I wouldn't really call it a joint, it doesn't move at all. It's two bolts that inhibit any side-to-side movement.

yah, it doesent move, but technically due to the fact its not one solid piece it loses structural strength and integrity. But like titanium said strut bars a strut bar, it doesent do much in the first place so any differences would be minimal.

after seeing pics, i found better the TL-S bar because it's all one piece. It replaces the stock little bars and add a bar between the two strut towers. Only welding, no joints.

To me, a strut bar that doesn't tie into the firewall is pretty much a cosmetic mod. Not that i haven't done it on some other cars i've owned . But it was for that sake. But a really nice bar does help alittle. And you can sometimes jack both wheels up from one side.

I recently just purchased one from acurazine forums. I was wondering what size are the nuts to hold the bar down? Size 12? I lost my stock nuts when I sold my DC bar to a member on here...so idk from there?

prolly but how much a Neuspeed bar worth ?

TL-S worth 67$CDN here.. i doubt the true difference between a 300$ strut bar vs. the TL-S one worth the $ difference.

Paid $90 used for my Neuspeed bar.
