Ok, here's the thing. I pick up an OEM rear sturt bar today. I know how to install it everything but wut I don't get is wuts the purpose of it? I mean I hear everybody talkin about them, but I mean wut to they do and is there noticably big difference in having one as appossed to a car that doesn't?

we all know I'm the resident dick.

but why not buy it?! CAUSE YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT THE HECK IT DOES, it makes no sense.
common sense and all guidelines say

research ---> purchase ---> install

arbitrarily buying random stuff < knowing what you are buying

informative consumers > ignorant consumers

and we wonder why our economy is failing :banghead:

you wouldn't go buy a random new car cause someone said it was cool, then figure out the features and how it works later now would you?!
If so the Ford Pinto....you should look into it...VERY cool car!


The point is we want educated users, through learning, who will do the research and figure out exactly what and why they are modifying on their car. Not only does it make sense it yields many POSITIVE results.
a) you save money in the long run, b) you learn more about your car and cars in general, c) you can form a definitive goal and methodically achieve that goal and d) your car functions and performs better.
