Simple bolt-on installed yesterday. Took less than 5 minutes and came with the 4 bolts required to install.

So can you FEEL a difference? Wondering if these are worth the coin and added weight.

I cannot really tell any difference (I didn't really expect to), as it's my wife's car and I don't drive it too often. There is no doubt that it has to improve the front end chassis rigidity however.

My 01 Sentra SE has one from the factory, and I have them both front and rear in the 240Z.

Total package weight was about 11 lbs., so the added weight is really negligible, plus it's well back in the underhood area.

I won a $50 gift certificate at our annual Z car club show from Stillen, and used it towards the purchase. Otherwise, I probably would not have bought it as I do not intend to mod her daily driver from a performance aspect.

I'm liking the 30-31 mpg it's getting on her 60 mile daily commute.

Great White Versa

I have the DC sports strut bar and I do notice a difference. I don't get as much wheel spin and/or chirping when accelerating out of corners.
