I've had good experiences with a front strut bar on a
different
vehicle - for whatever reason.
I've been wanting a matching
set - to match the rear strut bar
(which does help) for my TT for years
now.
If someone would be so good as to take my money
and ship one to
me - I'll pass along my own analysis. :)

I'd have to
agree ---- unless the price is exorbitant I'll have to try
one out also. I
would expect to see less improvement than on some
cars --- the strut towers
on our cars is tucked up tight to the firewall
and should be fairly
rigid, in the RX7 the towers are farther forward
as was my old 240Z.
The more wobble in the tower the more effective
a tower brace.
Let's get
going on this project.

Team3S: OT: Recommendations for a clutch on an RX-7??
Sorry for the off
topic post but I know some of you have RX-7's. My buddy
has a '94 and
he needs to get a clutch. He doesn't plan on doing too many
mods to
his car but does plan to increase power a little bit. What clutches
would you recommend?
Thanks,
Michael D. Crose
