    Most strut bars available to us are strictly cosmetic. If I had known, I wouldn't have gotten one in the first place.

    Struts and springs/coil systems will do you more good. Sway bars are also a significant upgrade.

    If you have extra $30 or $40, go get a strut bar. If not, then save some $$$ on lower springs and struts or sway bars.
    Strut bar looks good but does very little to improve handling. To me, the strut bar only give me more feedback from the wheels to the steer wheel. Which is good, coz you can feel the road condition more. But it really did very little to improve handling. Just my 2 cents. :)
