questions about neuspeed front upper strut tie bar
if i install these , will i need a wheel alignment?
will i see any noticible difference in handling if i install this?
also i think the instructions say to torque the bolts to the strut at an exact torque with a torque wrench. do i really need to do this?

- no
- yes, it will tighten up the front end a little (i know you have springs too so that helps
)
- no, just tighten them down good
and you made a very good choice, neuspeed makes the best front upper strut bar avaialble, IMO.

Rep Power: 0 ya i noticed a difference to, great product's, i just got my x brace but havent installed it yet. i also have a rear lower tie bar, i noticed a difference. Also ordered the neuspeed rear sway bar hope it will work with the rear lower tie bar. looking for a rear upper tie bar, nuespeed doesn't make one for our cars, but i heard that acura rsx parts will work on out cars, i'm looking into it. Also another great neuspeed product is the short shift adapter, grately shortend shifting.

Rep Power: 0 i just installed the Neuspeed front lower x bar, verry easy install, i was surprised it tightened up handeling alot handles alot better. I also ordered a 27 mm progress technology front sway bar and a 22 mm neuspeed rear sway bar, can't wait for them to come. Hoping they'll help with handleing and body roll, just hope that the neuspeed rear sway bar will work with the neuspeed rear lower tie bar.
just installed my strut bar today, haven't been able to test it driving spiritedly though. Damn was that thing a b!tch to install! Maybe its because I was in a front end collision, but I had to jack up my car and hammer the bar with a rubber mallet to get it to go down over the bolts. Getting the X-brace in sometime soon, and lowering this weekend. My car's going to be happy...
