Hey what will a DC engine upper strut bar and a rear lower tie bar do for my car?
Also are the Tokico gas shocks any good?

NOTHING........lol........Neuspeed is better.

But in general, strut bars are supposed to tight down your suspension and reduce body roll.

Tokico's aren't out for our cars yet, I dont' think.

In plain English

My neuspeed strut bar has:
-Decreased body flex (good thing)
-Increased stability
-Made the steering slightly stiffer
-Reduced body roll like Fly said

Rear Lower tie...
-Prevents your frame from being "ripped"
(Recommended if you get the RSX 19mm or Progress 22mm rear anti-sway bar)


Tokicos...
-Not out =P
Koni's are out...they make your ride smoother or something.

edit: The design of the Neuspeed strut bar is by far better than the DC. Neuspeed is also 1 piece compared to DC 3+ pieces. The less pieces the better [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Just to add to this... I felt a difference with my DC Sports. Many people don't notice a thing with the Neuspeed. That's for the front strut bar. However, I do not reccomend the DC Sports. I sold mine. The joints come loose and you have to re-tighten it from time to time. Get something else. Not Neuspeed though 'cause one dude with both the Neuspeed and DC Sports said he felt a bigger difference with his DC Sports than he did with the Neuspeed.
