i'll go ahead and tryout an OEM strut bar.
thanks all for your input.
about the intake rubber hose that i'm supposed to connect..
i see a hose from 'left side, rear' connected to the air filter box (?). do i disconnect it and put the rubber hose from my intake to the 'left side, rear' port? and what about the hole that's now at the air filter box (?) ? sorry if i don't seem to make things clear.

Yes there not as nice as the more expensive ones but I can't see how it could make that much of a difference. Both should be better than none.
If you can feel your car flex less with a front strut bar you are blowing smoke out of your butt. It's like a butt dyno.

hey, sorry to jack this thread, but I want to put the PAssword JDM 3 point strut tower bar in the front on my 97 DX coupe but the stock air filter box is in the way so what the hell do I do to get rid of it?
