I just installed my floor bar tonight(look at the time). Well, I'll tell you one thing, it was the best $79 dollars I spent. I had to get some washers to fit the bar properly, but its all well. I drove it around for a hour afterwards and the car is about 25% stiffer(than two strut bars). I can feel all the bumps in the road and my car feels so controllable. I know what people talk about when they say there car is bouncy, but my car is very rough. My car goes over a bump and it bounces once and its back to normal again. You have to love it. I should play around with the settings(12/8, right now) and see how it goes.
I might trade for 18 inch subzeros. I guess I should, I do not street race at all and the 16 will not help me if I do not race... 18s powdercoated flat black or the color of my car(a close enough color)... This does not get in the way of me getting 17x8s. I think Regamaster makes that size too(for those who do not know the company, they make the spoons rims for you guessed it, spoon). Him... Anyone looking for $400 floor standing speakers??? Anyone?

my 18s ride rough.. wouldnt trade it for the world tho
ya getting wheels the color of your car would look nice... this one girl in florida had a blue civic with wheels powder coated to match the car.. looked nice. BUT i think its best with a polished lip, all black kinda looks ugly..

I bet you have a welder. I wish I had access to one. I would of loved to welded a straight bar in the same place I have it now. Its just about in the middle where is would not get in the way of the center console. But have fun and post some pics. Are you going to make it out of steel, aluminum, or chromoly? If you do not need the room, you can add a brace across the trunk right in front of the jack. That should stiffen up you car and make it more square at the ends, so the car will not twist. There is a place to put one in the front too.

No, I don't have a welder. Yet. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I was planning on making it out of aluminum. I'm not sure of the design just yet. I want one that I can depend on to anchor my seat belts to when I get aftermarket seats. It has to be very stiff. I might even triangulate it in the vertical direction so that I can be sure that it will not bend when I have my seat belt anchored to it. We'll see though. I don't want it to be a total pain in the *** for when I have rear seat passengers. It'll need to be compact enough, yet strong enough. I might need to make it out of steel instead of aluminum. Chromoly would be nice, but too expensive. I plan to call it "Mr. Stiffy". [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
