2001 Honda Civic - Exhaust Notes
Check out these questions that our readers have for our Honda Tuning staff. We answer questions regarding a suspension problem with a 2001 Honda Civic and many more.Behind bars
My question to you is in regards to my CRX being built for SCCA solo competition. In the Street Touring class, I have learned from several of the successful drivers that they do not recommend the bars that go between the shock towers to stiffen up the chassis. The common opinion is that in our solo competition, the Honda is already stiff enough and does not need this additional bracing. In fact, these have been said to add unnecessary additional weight! I see in most of the prepared cars in Honda Tuning everyone has the braces, and many have an X bracing in the rear of the car. Could you talk about the philosophy behind these, or direct me to an article that discusses the benefits and hopefully has some measurable engineering basis for the bracing.
