I ran a search and got a lot of worthless results, so I'm starting a topic which will hopefully provide pure, useful information (and should be added to the above Suspension Guide).

I want to get strut bars, and there seem to be slim pickings nowadays. I mostly hear about used GT4 parts and Dodge Neon parts. Oy.

What are my options for brands and places to purchase? Thanks!

Where'd you get the cuscos? I don't mind spending money, though the less I spend on them the more I can spend on other things.

I actually bought them off someone selling them on here, but if you get them imported I think they'll run you about 180 a pop. Better off getting a neon bar for the front. Rears I think you're SOL, going to have to take a hit in the wallet.

Somewhere I thought I saw that the Neon brace only connects to two bolts. That's not cool.
So cusco or custom made is the only way I can go?

Aye, I have a J-Speed front; it's nice. DG makes quality bars though, if I didn't have a coupe, I'd have one of his in the rear of my car.
