Hello,

I have never installed struts on a car before and hae a couple of questions if you guys could help em out, I would appreciate it.

1. Does strut bars make a big difference in handling and flex of the car and is it worth buying and installing?

2. How hard is it to install the front strut bar? rear strut bar?

3. Do you have to modify the car in any way, as far as removing or cutting something?

4. Do you need to lift the car off the ground or can you just pop the hood and install the front strut bar? do you have to lift the car for the rear strut bar?

5. Can you use strut bars that are made for the wrx on the rs?

If anybody could give detail answers and instructions I would greatly appreciate it.

I was thinking of buying this set off ebay. tell me what you think. Thanks!

#1: No ~ but it DOES make a difference (less important the tires and shocks/springs).

#2 Front bar, no brainer. Rear bar (on sedan a bit trickier).

#3 No on the front (yes for rear on wagon ~ you will need to cut some carpet near the top of the strut towers.

#4 Just pop the hood and break out the 12mm wrench.

#5 Yes (but why... much better bars out there).
