What do you guys think of my new strut bar? My friend built this for me so I could have more control on the track.

that is too crazy of bar for a nose-heavy, understeering, front-wheel drive car. but hey, it looks cool, right?

i hope your rear bracing is much much much more involved.

To each there own.........I'm happy with the bar and it has complimented my progress rear sway bar very well.

He just loves to hate on accord owners modifying their car towards performance cause hes moved on.

when we're all driving BMW's he'll have some car with plasma drive that shits on IC engines.. and he'll say.. god why are you even messing with that thing, I mean... I loved my old beamer but they aren't that good.

I do want to get one but I'm not sure that it would be a lot better than a traditional 2 point in an accord, that is without a lot of suspension mods to realy see the difference it could/would make. I'mn going to finish up doing the Accord I got but I don't know if it woudl really matter that much in the end as its not getting super high end suspension componets on it, upgraded yes but not top of the line.

not even close. I like seeing people modifying their cars for performance. even hondas. but tightening up a nose-heavy understeering front wheel drive car will cause it to understeer even more. the op said he wants more control at the track. well if he had done a little bit of research, he'd find that stiffer fronts means more understeer. which is dangerous for a heavy ff car that naturally understeers. from a performance standpoint, the goal is to make the car handle more neutrally. this is done (for the accord at least) by shifting weight to the rear and stiffening up the rear suspension.
