Default Will this just bolt on?

I am thinking about ordering this for me 2001 LS. Will it bolt directly on, or will I have to make some modifications to get it to fit?

yes it does....if its made for the car then all you have to do is unscrew a few bolts, place the strut bar and screw the bolts on again

That thing's a piece and is just for looks. I wouldn't reccomend getting it if you're looking for any performance whatsoever...

For what you're getting, I wouldn't spend the extra money just for JDM bling.

Check your local auto recyclers... A GS-R bar will work just as well for less money.

If you want turning performance, go with an ITR rear sway bar. A bit more expensive but definitely worth it. The front strut bars don't really do anything. Spend your money on something more useful.

not true

front strut bars reduce understeer. heavier rear sway bars create oversteer. eitherway, you neutralize understeer but id go with the strut bar, its cheaper, easier to install... ITR bar will tear your subframe if you dont get a reenforcement kit... if the strut bar isnt enough, start looking into heavier sway bars.

What is this reinforcement kit you're talking about? And how much does it cost?
