Neuspeed Front Upper Strut




"Neuspeed's Front Upper Strut Brace is a solid twin mount design that will resist flex more than any other strut Bar design. Neuspeed uses a dual mount Strut because it reduces side-to-side and front-to-back twist. Neuspeed's Upper Front Strut Brace was the first to the market and is still considered to be one of the finest designs available."

Ok so heres what you really wanna know now. This strut bar, is a awesome mod in my opinion. Like as soon as i put it on and took some of my favorite on and off ramps, and i could tell the difference! I can now take those fun turns without my tires squealing, and also at higher speeds.

Price = $75 (used from another member) u can get it for $120 through truehonda.com

Style = 10 = I love the look of it, i have the black one, and unlike all those other struts, where its 3 different pieces (the bar, then both of the mounts) this is just one full piece. Idk but to me thats a better piece of mind, cause i know nothing can come a loose.

Fitment = 10 = its a perfect fit, and it clears all Intakes!

Install = 8 = Its not a ten because once i had one side on, i had to jack up the other side just a little, then tighten it down, to get it on there. But this is with most strut bars, from what i have heard.

Performance = 10 = It does exactly what they say it its supposed to.

Overall = 9.5 = this is a great mod for a good price, i highly recommend it

Re: Neuspeed Front Upper Strut

would the strut bar change the wheel alignment, since you had to jack up one side to make it fit?

Re: Neuspeed Front Upper Strut

^no. unless you consider the little bit of chassis flex going to turns as stuff to be continually changing your alignment too.

Re: Neuspeed Front Upper Strut

I've had it on my car for well over 2.5 years now. I took it off when I installed my Tein SS-Ps and forgot to put it on. As soon as I hopped in and took it around the block, I immediately noticed the difference (turning felt loose as a ****) and installed it ASAP..

I think I may get my bar powdercoated candy blue

Re: Neuspeed Front Upper Strut

i had to take mine off to install the stiffy damper, and yes i felt a difference too. it basically provides faster response from the steering wheel. when i went back to stock, there was a dead space of 1 inch turning to either side where if you turn the wheel, nothing would happen. with the bar, turning the wheel immediately starts moving the car left/right. its not a huge difference but def something to get used to.

Re: Neuspeed Front Upper Strut

Yea. I didn't notice it when I first put it on, probably because I was expecting more due to its hype on 7thgen, but damn, you miss it when it's gone.. lol
