I just bolted mine on, took like 5 minutes. Honestly, I mainly got it cause it looks so damn and the price was very right, but what kind of difference can I expect to see with this on?

 

not much, it already has small braces attached to the frame & strut tower. the factory Acura TL-S version is the same price, around $100.

which you get black or alloy?

 

I got the polished one w/yellow writing, that way it matches my CAI:thumbup:

 

Just double checking, You jacked up your car first right?

 

You aren't supposed to jack up the car to do this.

 

If you are talking about the strut bar that goes accrossthe engine, I was pretty sure you were suposed to jack up the two front tires so they are not touching the ground then put the strut bar on, let the car down and your done.

 

The 5th gen 4-cylinder doen't have any brace from the factory.
Are you sure about that? When the shop did the my bar, they didn't raise the car. When we did my friend's Civic, we didn't do that either. I don't even recall the instructions says that.

 

Yeah, thats the bar im talking about. I'm not sure where you heard that but Neuspeed specifically says "with all four wheels on level ground".

 

hmm..Oh ok..Well i heard it from a race shop close by. They said You should do it so automatically when your wheels touch the ground your suspension is already stiffened up and the car will adjust to it kinda like your ECU and when you install a intake. Not sure though.But if neuspeed says that, then dont listen to me...

 

I won't You had me going for a second though, I wasn't quite sure so I had to get my instructions from Neuspeed to make sure.
