i like how both of these bars look, the scion FX one is really basic and i like simplistic performance. The DC sports bar "looks" like it performs better but if i can get similar if not same performance from the scion fx strut bar id rather go for that due to its nice looking sleak basic design. Anyone help me out here?

 

check out the randode one...

im 18 yearsold im looking for a strut under 100, and the dc sports i can get for 90~ and the scion fx for under 50, im just looking at those 2 struts atm.

 

i likes my dc sports!

 

i have the fx strut bar, im happy with it (all i could afford) but i would prefer the dc sports if i was able to get it. it looks better and looks like it would perform better.

 

does anyone know the weights of the strut bars? i feel like i'm adding so much weight with all these mods... I like the dcsport one too but it looks heavy... (also looks like the oem one by hotchkis)...

theres at least one more bar in your price range... the tanabe... personally i don't like the way it looks so much... but it might be lighter and tanabe does have a full range of suspension stuff for our scions...

 

the fx strut bar must weigh like about 2 pounds. or atlest thats what it said on the box when it got shipped.

 

both do their job ....
just one is simple and the other is stylish....
and ofcourse there is a difference in price...
but either one will do what they are suppose to do ..
not one is better or worse....

 

might want to ask this in corner carvers... though i hate sharing that forum with xAs cuz there's different advice for both cars

 

i dig the DC
i had it painted to match the body
i have never believed the "adjustable" bars actually do anything
I don't think the DC can flex, you can grab the middle of the installed bar and rock the whole car

 

On our cars with the way the suspension is designed, none of them will do much. but every little bit helps.

 

ScionFX baby.

 

APR = SEXY!!!!

 

If you are really strapped on cash, don't bother getting a front strut bar. The strut housings are located so close to the firewall that it isn't likely to "flex" very much around that location.

A rear strut bar, however, would probably help a good deal.

 

get the JIC one
