Going by your mod list, no, this is not worth getting.

Do you really have several thousand in parts just sitting around and not on the car?

If I were to do it again, I would do it in this order:
-tires
-rear sway bar
-shocks/springs/coilovers
-strut bars
-front sway bar?
-front lower tie bar

Jtoby noticed an interesting side effect that makes you wonder a little bit, after he installed his RRE lower tie bar he lost 1* of camber. Hard to believe that that would be static, but I trust him more than anyone when it comes to making our cars turn.

Yep, I did. 2G are are not unibodies. They are overcooked pasta.

Thanks for the kinds words, too. But I think I lost 1* total, not 1* each side. But I think the bar was worth it. If nothing else, it saved my exhaust when I rallycrossed the car.

Here's a tip: remove the strut-tower brace (assuming you have one) before installing the lower brace. If possible, install the brace from a pit with the car's weight on the wheels (or knuckles). You want to brace the lower pick-up points for the front suspension as far out as possible (for the camber). Then put the STB back on and torque it inwards as tight as you can.

i see what your saying its the opposite of installing the strut bar if im not mistaken.
by installing it while the wheels are off the ground.
thx, this is some really good info.
