i mean if you have auto trans, there is no modification needed when installing the bar (auto doesn't have a clutch fluid reservoir in the way).

thats fine, if you feel it made your car and steering feel that much better, thats great! I'm glad you like it, I enjoyed mine too. What I mean is, for normal driving, it's not noticable. Most of the time, a strut bar isnt necessary unless there really is a weak/soft spot in the chassis, which in the CIvic's case, there isnt much b/c the strut tower is already against the firewall. Also, if some of you didnt notice, the car comes with a chassis brace unless you have a 01 LX/DX. To locate it, it's kind of right above the axles.... easier to see if you have an aftermarket intake.
In autoX and road course, it would be more beneficial and more of a must have item then. I'm not saying "dont get it".... as I said, I had 1 myself. But people are getting the wrong idea. It doesnt reduce roll and it doesnt work the same as an anti roll bar.
