evo suspended
The WORKS rear strut tower bar, a heavy duty strut bar which adds rigidity to the rear suspension when the two strut towers are connected. i can actually feel the rear of the car being planted when taking a high spirited turn. the strut bar prevents the sturt towers/rear chassis from twisting during high speed cornering and keeps the rear end planted to the ground. i love this thing!
here is a shot of the trunk space without the trunk lining. you can see how the strut bar is attached to the strut towers.
here is the trunk space with the trunk lining installed. it was a pain the cut the holes in the lining for the strut bar, but i managed to make it look uber stock.
the RS trunk bar. keeps the rear trunk area rigid and from twisting when taking a high speed turn. also aids in keeping the rear of the car planted when taking a turn.
the evo is now 5 months old and has 6200 miles on the odo. i had to change out the stock intercooler hose clamps cause the clamps were loosening up causing boost leaks. i changed the stock clamps and used t-bolt clamps. the t-bolt clamps stay tight and will never loosen up. i wish i took pictures of the evo with the bumper off, but i got lazy. but the boost leaks are no more.
until next time...
