C-one tower bar installed

a C-one tower bar was brought from japan,
Its quite difficult for DIY install and I used for one hour
after installation, I found that the pole is not hard as i expected.
will be little bit curved when I push a hand on it
Anyway, it surely good looking at all.

it is suppose to make the chassis more rigit and less movement between the struts , it should impove your handling especially through the corners

Our body rolls side to side like a motherfucker, but it doesn't really seem to flex all that much, even under spirited driving. At least not to me.

One piece does not do miracles. Its like putting together a puzzle. Get the struts, tires, springs front and rear sways and then drive.

that should be the last thing you put in that puzzle... install lowering springs with a 30% difference in stiffness first...

I think this should lower the vibration from the road a "tiny bit" more, as what I've observed from my 00 Kia in the Philippines although that has a go-kart coil-over welded to it, its custom fabricated by a 17yr old kid at the machine shop and powder coated in Skyline Blue at a "motorbike shop... LOL!
