Can someone please help me? I need some pics or something guidance on how to install the rear strut tower bar. It looks like i need to remove all the paneling in the rear to do it..but someone else told me otherwise. I dont want to pay a shop for something so simple..i just need some help. Thanks to anyone who is willing to help me with this

 

Please step away from the car. Thank you.

 

you can reach the strut bolts without ripping the hole trunk apart, I think you need swivel sockets and some small hands might help to.

Helped a friend do it before, it was a pian just the install a strut bar but...

Btw were did u get this sturt bar?

they used to have them on ebay but no more

 

FYI, an RSTB is pointless...all you need is a RSB

 

^^ agreed RSB>RSTB

but anyways..where did you find an RSTB? and for how much,.. i wasnt sure that anyone was making them ....

 

hmmm...maybe you could donate some of the the money to .org instead.
...but i'm sure you'll do it eventually.

It's the Stillen RSTB..picked it up about 1 month ago..

RSTB don't do jack.

I ripped apart my trunk already, it's stripped.

 

bend and contort, thats how i got mine in, just pull back the carpetting, and ur gonna have to cut the carpet to allow it to go back to its orgional position.

and while the rstb does very little, esp when compared to a rsb i wouldnt say it, doesnt do jack. perhaps its cause i run a rather high spring rate and every es bushing. or just cause im crazy, but i noticed a difference, altho it was minor.

i have one of the cheap ebay bars, i got for like 25bucks shipped or so a bout a year back or so, i just finally installed it a few months ago tho.

 

You do know that you are talking about the wrong bar. Everybody is talking about a RSTB not a RSB.

 

sorry i typed that wrong, iwas speaking of the rstb and its mild impact

 

Its all good. I was just giving you a hard time. It does do mild impact but it's cool to have when you pop that trunk and people can see that bar sitting right there.

 

Law is right ... I got a Stillen RSTB and it looks clean on the back.. I thought it was just going to be a 1 inch Round Tube but it looks just like the front one with STILLEN across the middle .

I got mine installed since i dont have tools and im still a newbie to this.. But my bar sits nice all the way in the back with out cutting or removing anything from the rear.. All that was cut is the Cover that goes all around the trunk for the bar to go threw it

 

sorry panda been a little tied up did you get that rstb in i got your number let me know and ill try to give you a call tommorrow

 

I figured out a way to do it..there is like a "writeup: that coolmax provided..ill let you know if there is any other problems..should be in by next week..because i cant work on it until next friday

 

notice any difference with the bar? ive always heard rstb=near minimal gains ,.. but ive never had one myself ..so im just wondering ur thoughts on it...since u HAVE one installed...

 

I cant really tell the difference..so everybody is right on here and what you heard, It does look good.. But its in the trunk so you dont see it much . The sway bar is the one i notice the most.. and the FSTB
