It really is just ricer crap. I've seen these types of strut braces break under serious stress. They are bisically just for dress up. If you drive your car very easy it will give you some increased rigidity in the chassis, but don't push it or it could break (autocross)

dk1021 is an unknown quantity at this point
It seems a bit .. cheap ..
I ordered Megan Racing ones .. should be coming in soon.
The price should be like $40 or so, but it's much better quality than those ebay ones.

I have these.
://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/01-04-HONDA-CIVIC-STAINLESS-STEEL-FRONT-REAR-STRUT-BAR_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33591QQitemZ8067250 303QQrdZ1 add the http to the beginning (I don't have 15 posts yet)

they are really sturdy. the mounting brackets are about 1/8" thick and I could jump up and down on the front one and it didn't bend just flexed a little and sprung back into place. they fit well but the front won't work with an AEM style intake.. I'm happy with them.. a solid deal IMO.

if you have a full suspension, it will do its job. dont expect the bar to give you a drastic change in performance.
