hey there all just wondering, i've almost finished the suspension on my car. I can't seem to find a front lower tie bar for my car. I've looked high and low and cant seem to find one. If anyone out there knows, it would be great if someone would drop me a line. thx.

it doesnt do anything really, it is solid enough around that point, now for looks its a different story, but i believe it has been proven that stiffening the front underbody via swaybar etc actually makes handleing worse for our cars

d3 csk is the only underbody bracing for the front available.

quick example of not over stiffening the front.

2000 models come equiped with a 17mm front sway bar and a 18mm rear sway bars (except DE)
The GTZ for that year has a 16mm front bar and a 19mm rear.
:wink:

you guys are talking about anti-sway bars.... i'm talking about chasis stiffening... 2 totally different things. the original question was about chasis stiffening hence "tie bar". chasis bars do not affect lean (sway) and anti-sway bars do not stiffen the chasis.
