Hey there, for those who have the Cusco strut bars. Correct me if I’m wrong, those are adjustable, right? Next question, have you played around with their adjustability? I was just curious about this. I did some searching on Cusco strut bars on this forum and never heard of someone talking about their adjustability, but I do know some of you have them. I have them for the front and rear. I’ve actually had them for about couple years now and love them. I just want to know a little more info on them and thought maybe you guys can give some insight. Thanks…

 

Unlike most adjustable suspension parts that adjust to fine tune, adjustable sway bars are pretty much only adjustable to make them fit. Cars flex and twist and after so many cycles they get further from their original shape. Adjustability remedies this problem. You can dial in a certain amount of preload into the bar but it's effects are minimal. Too much adjusting and you're likely to bend the bar or move a shock tower out of whack. Adjust it to fit and it will do exactly what it's supposed to do.

 

i got an msa front bar, its "adjustible" to the car, plus i added some preload to compensate. they add a noticable diff.

 

I got a "NismoPick" rear strut bar, with a "NismoPick" front one on the way.

Oh yeah... cost: Priceless... oh, I mean $0.

 

im working on the shady rear version, with belt mounts and camera mount

 

Absolutely! I had just finished painting my rear strut bar when my buddy says: "Why didn't you put a camera mount on there?" Again... something that could have been brought to my attention YESTERDAY!

 

SORRY DUDE, I HAVE MENTIONED IT IN THE PAST. MAYBEE YOU SHOULD HAVE ASKED

 

naw... that sarcasm was said to my buddy, not you.... I made that strut bar 2 years ago.

 

Thanks guys for the response…I was just curious about the adjustability of strut bars. It does make sense what you talked about J, thanks…appreciate the comments and help.

 

It would have been cheaper to do it yourself and may be cheaper to pull yours out and put the camera mount on it yourself, but if you're too lazy...

That's bad ***! I've seen some suction cup ones for inside / outside window or door use. No matter how strong it is, I couldn't ever stick a $1000 camera on the side of my car when I'm driving crazy.

 

driving crazy, or going crazy

 

That's true... "going crazy" makes more sense!

 

So what is the best strut tower brace to buy?

 

This previous post from J was pretty good:

Pretty much, if it's made of a hard metal, and fits, it will work. It's job it to keep the struts from moving apart.

I made my own for a cost of $0.
