Racingline Strut Tower VS. Stillen Strut Tower

[SoCal-AC-805]

I am going to buy one of these soon and was just wondering if anybody has any experience with the racingline strut tower? it seems like everybody has the stillen setup but i thought the other one looked nicer/stronger.

This is about the Strut Tower bar right ??? ...not the rear sway bar.

I have Racingline's STB and I love it. I have no experience with Stillen's but theirs did look a little bulkier and therefore more sturdy. I got a deal on mine and that's why I went with Racingline.

I have the Stillen one. I bought it because it's made from a better material if I remember correctly. Stillen makes great quality products and you will not regret your decition. I've got and have had a lot of the work done to my car by Stillen. BBK for the front, rear, rear sway and underdrive pulley. I have nothing bad to say about them or their products. I would say for myself that the Stillen one is bulkier and more sturdy. I also love the way the STILLEN logo looks on the center of the bar.

I cant speak for the Racingline one, but I can assure you that the Stillen one is not weak in any way

[rcboy514]

any idea if either of these will fit with the AEM intake? I really want one, but the space looks too cramped between the intake and the firewall maybe?

[RaiderKID]

or K&N intake?

To the OP, both are great bars... Racingline is $100 cheaper and they offer a black powdercoat option, but Stillen uses aircraft grade alumnium... it may be overkill, but it sure makes for a sturdy a$$ bar...I say you win either way!

[adidas2go]

Both are good bars, you really can't go wrong with either. The quality of both are good enough that you really couldn't tell a difference. Its like comparing 2 high quality tire sets. Road tests really

Go with whatever you asthetically pleases you the most, because you won't notice a performance difference. I personally like the Racingline STB. I like clean, simple, and effective. Plus the black looks MEAN

Well said Blake!

I personally have the Racingline STB, but I have examined both of them in detail... They both provide stability for the front end and reduce body roll... IMO they are similar enough to go by "look"... I always prefer something black for my car, and Racingline offers black, so I have the Racingline one.

Both are high quality products and I am quite certain you will be pleased with whichever one you choose!

oops lol!

[Boilermaker318]

I would only demand aircraft grade aluminum if it was going on my plane, or if my altima could fly.

[Racingline]

Just for reference for everyone. The Racingline bar is also 6061-T6 (aircraft grade) aluminum. Our is an extrusion vs the Stillen Billet.

Truth of the matter is I would bet that you can not notice a difference between the two. They seem to both be quality products and probably perform equally. I have the racingling strut bar and I have no complaints. My car feels entirely different then it did without it. The best way I could describe is my car seems to be more "confident" in its moves. The steering is more responsive and I can go into the twisties much much faster. I think you cant go wrong with either. if you love the look of the stillen, then by all means get it. if you have no preference, I woudl go with the one that is $100 cheaper.
