so just got in the mail from www.kamispeed.com the c one performance bars this came with the center support bar, the front strut bar, the rear strut bar, the rear stabilizer that requires u to take of ur rear bumper and the front support bar. so far i was able to install the center bar and the rear strut bar at my house the rest i will do when i go to work tomorrow. anyways here is the pic for center bar it took 5 min to do. ill post pics when i can get the car higher in the air.

the rear strut bar requires 2 14 mm wrenches to break off the nuts. first pop off the 2 black covers. then take the caps off and take the nuts off. put the strut bar on and use the washers that c one provides, then put the bushing and the 2 nuts back on tighten everything and it should look like this. the install took about 15 min

with the test drive i noticed a big difference with the center bar and with the rear strut bar just driving in the neighborhood i couldnt tell that much of a change but when i hit the free way i know there will be less chassis flex. ill post more when i install the rest tomorrow


alright so here comes the install of the 4 point lower bar it goes in the front.

first u need to unbolt that gray 19mm bolt that holds the subframe and put the brace on and use the 2 12mm that are provided to hold the other 2 portions of the bar this was a pretty easy install also.

next was the front strut bar that goes in the engine i was on my way of doing this but changed my mind cause i will install this when i do my suspension so i dont have to do it twice. but this is what comes with it and how it would look if it was installed

the last bar i have is the rear bar that takes place of the rear bumper support some people would not do this due to safety and of possibly gettng rear ended but hey it lost maybe 15 pounds and stiffens up the chassis up to u.
first remove the 2 tens holding the bumper on then remove the black clips holding it in i think theres about 8 that are all under the bumper then just pop it out from the side and the bumper comes out

then remove the bumper support by taking off the 3 14mm holding it in on each side

put on the c one bar and make sure everything is tight put the bumper back on and ur done

yes the car feels a lot more stable, and steering response improved a lot, when im taking turns and exiting the turn its more stable. im still using stock suspension and wheels so i know that when i upgrade those it will handle a lot better

Is the C-One front chassis bar the same as Cusco's front tie bar? I can't really place where that front chassis bar goes... if they aren't the same does it interfere with the operation of the Cusco tie bar at all? Two more questions for bulletproof, does C-One's Aluminum under panel fit USDM Yarii properly? I thought it was intended for JDM RS models, so I was a bit worried about fitment. Also... what is the Engine Torque Dampener, I've been unable to locate it on C-One's site... will it work for autos, because I know certain parts like the Engine mount will not.

what's the difference between c-one front strut bar and c-one front strt bar type r??

^Price and rigidness. The Type R has 2 inner-support colums that makes it more rigid and less vunerable to warping. For our cars, the normal strut bar should be fine. If you want more info contact Kami Speed, they are the official US distributor for C-ONE; that's where I bought my parts. Thanks
