Smile Tanabe front strut bar???

Ok so we all know the cube has a lot of body roll, and i want to get a front strut bar to stabilize it. How much difference will it make and is this a good strut bar? Thanks!!!

It will make zero difference. A strut tower bar is for the integrity of the body (less flex) and has nothing to do with the amount of roll it exhibits. If you're looking for less roll, get the Tanabe coil-over suspension. Further, the roll you're experiencing is likely exaggerated by the poor lateral support in the seats. I did the Tanabe suspension (and strut bar) and ripped my seat apart to install more foam on the seat back sides to hold me in place during spirited driving.

Default Lay flat on your back

Lay flat on your back

Lay flat on your back, arms out to sides and palms down, with your knees bent and feet flat to the floor. Shift onto your left hip, keeping your back flat to the floor. Lower your knees to the left side, so that the left knee and thigh golf clubs for sale lay on the floor. Place your left hand on your right knee, and pull the right knee down to floor…at the same time your head should be turned to the right, facing your right hand. Hold for 30 seconds, then slowly switch positions to the other side. Ishiner

A strut bar will help with the steering feel of your car and give you a more crisp responsive feeling. Which is still good.

If you really want to reduce body roll you should check out the Tanabe stabilizer bar.

The stabilizer bar will connect the lower suspension and allow the car to fully utilize its suspension.

stabilizer bar and tires are 1 & 2 on mod lists everywhere. strut bar is ok but not very effective.
