Neuspeed Strut bar vs. no-name eBay bar - Honda Prelude Forum

Cookout · 06-26-2002, 11:57 PM

I bought a cheapy bar from eBay and it was a bar, but I realized it has it's weak points, just like most bars out there. But then I looked at the Neuspeed one, and I realized it SOLID from head to toe, and this is exactly what I want. For those of you who has it, how do you like it? I'd like any imput!

I have a neuspeed in my lude and like the way the car handles. It is vey strong and will not bend. The only thing is it stiffened up the front so much that the rear tends to get loose easier. I am getting a sppon rear strut bar soon and it should take care of that. Probably the best $100 I have spent.

I love mine and recommend them to everyone. Like you said, I wwent with it because it is a ONE piece bar and not niged like the Spoon or ebay bars.
If you are interested in one by the way, check my sig. I have some in stock and they get shipped next day air. Good prices.
Sorry for the sales pitch.

Great. I just thought I'd get a little imput and it sounds nice. What do you guys recommend as rear upper and lower strut bars? I'm cluless on this and it seems DC is my only option, but they don't seem any better than the eBay ones.

I also have neuspeed bar - first suspension mod I got.
It is a great upgrade.
You can always sell your APC strut tie and get the NS.

I have one and I am pleased with it. The only problem is that when ever I remove the bolts don't want to alight when I need to put it on and it always seems to be a PITA to reinstall.

Did you have to take off your intake to install it?

I bought my neuspeed bar about a couple weeks ago and all I can say is damn.. you can definitely notice a difference in it. The entire body of the car feels so much stronger and it feels smoother going into turns. Ask my wife (she has absolutely no interest in cars) but after I installed it and took her for a ride, even SHE noticed a difference..

i put mine on last week.....and yeah, it was a huge pain to install. i stripped to bolts and sort of made two other bolts smooth while tightening it. all w/ the correct tools too....maybe i'm just incompetent......but anyways, i noticed a sliiight difference w/ this. i had my gc/konis way long before i got this, so the most noticeable suspension difference was there, but like it is previously said.....the front is a lot stiffer and the rear does kick out.....but it's worth it....very good bang for your buck. got mine for $92
