Can you feel any difference?

Can you please post some pics? I'm interested to see how it looks in the rear.

Thanks in advance

I definitely felt a difference in turns. I will try to get some pics for you tommroow. You can't see it from the rear though. Only through the wheel area.

ok well I was going to take pics but I can't really get any good ones. you can just barely see the red of the stillen sway bar when looking through the wheels and you can't see it at all from the rear. But it does work

Paul,I'm guessing you really didn't feel any difference with the strut tower brace??

How about the grounding kit? Feel anything? Better HP or MPG or response???

Strut bar is not a smart use of money unless you ran out of all other bolt on modifications.. How much did you pay for that?? You can get a set of front/rear sway bars for less then $200.. Now THAT WILL make a difference. Honestly I fell the strut bars are just a placebo.. Yes they may make a difference (however small it may be) but what you feel as "better in turns" is most likely just you paying attention because you know you just put in a new mod and you notice it being better in the turns because you usually don't pay attention.

I had a strut bar in my late model firebird...definitely felt a difference in that car. Not sure I'd feel the same in the G; it's light years ahead in engineering and design. There are other suspension goodies that will help more...

honestly it's hard to say how much the strut bar made a difference because I also had Tokico D Specs put on at the same time. I also already have the Stillen sway bars. I think the strut bar probably made a difference in my sharp cornering. As for the ground kit I did feel a nice torque increase but I also have the grounding box (forgot the name of it).
