searched and found one thread of you guys talking about paypal...RVM..


anyway from research and thinking, is this a worthy purchase?

I have gather that hatch backs doesn't have much strength across the body at the back, right?


Has anyone got this and felt a difference on the 9?


also I did read about upper rear strut brace? and someone said it didn't do much difference?

so what do we think about C-pillar bar?
 
good thread mate,am very interested to hear also

as far as the rear strut goes-i dunno if it made a difference tbh,my car handles unbelievable well before i put mine on reason being i also have cusco front,cusco rear tie bar,and tien type flex coilovers)

i have a j's racing c pillar bar ordered too
 
I had hear about how the little thing like C-pillar bar make the car better...
If you only have the C-pillar bar it won't help alot as you can notice...but if you add on the front + rear tower bar and sway bar...everything work together will be great and you will notice how the C-pillar bar work out :p
 
i remember seeing in a magazine some where that J's Racing had a C-pillar bar that fitted along the roof of an EK9! has anyone ever heard or seen a C-pillar bar like that?
 
i used to have one, it dosent do anything, i gave it to rvm for almost nothing.
its more for looks, but they are kind of heavy :angry: i LOVE the rear shock tower bar, i noticed a HUGE difference with that, the front one makes a small difference, sway bars help too, but i love the rear shock bar the best :)
 
as blins said, rear upper and front upper strut makes improvements, however, the c pillar bar was just adding weight imo. it looks good though... but oh so dangerous for rear passengers :p (if you carry them)
 
not sure what c-pillar ur talking about... would this be the one across the the rear footspace? i mean, is this the brace bolted onto safety belt fixing?
 
top one, bolts onto the upper seat belt stays, arcoss the head of the back seats.
 
i have c piller bar front upper an lower brace rear upper an lower brace find the car handles alot better everythin feels tight an responsive oh an a 6 point roll cage....c piller brace would not be suitable for harnesses its to stop roof line flex in u got into an accident wit harnesses wrapped around it it would bend or snap!!
 
It's not a big difference, you will feel a difference with a rear tower bar! not a cpillar bar.
