            In my honest opinion , I would not even waste money on bars with flex/adjusting points.

              I have that one. With no flex point it's harder to put on but better performance. The Sprint sticker is no good. Won't stay on.
              The letters come off easily.

                The Sprint one is a more rigid design, as said, but it won't clear a DOHC engine. If you have a swap, or plan on doing one, then don't get that bar.

                The first one is a generic design. The DC Sports strut bar was the first to really gain popularity in that style. I have a Megan Racing knockoff, similar to that one, and it suits me well. Fits with an H22 swap.

                Either one will make some difference.

                  Generally speaking...Those things are a waste.

                  If you know anything about a cars suspension then you'll know they aren't worth a crap. What you should be focusing on is the anti-sway bars and rear strut tower brace not the front. What your going to end up doing to the car is making the front too stiff up top where it won't flex like it needs to and you WILL lose traction.

                  A more proper approach to suspension progression would be:

                  Larger front anti sway bar(solid not hollow people!, endlinks and bushings(poly- black is better for achieving a more squeak free install) grease the fuck outta them.

                  Rear Anti sway and poly bushings/endlinks

                  Rear tower brace.

                  Shocks and springs.( if you can't do both at the same time do SHOCK FIRST!.)

                  Front tower brace. If your really going this far then you should have one that connects to the firewal of the car for a 3rd anchor point. They aren't cheap but they are much better than the other 2 showed in this thread. the one Explodingcake showed is a good middle ground though.

                    A triangulated rear brace would be good too
