What about the DC sport carbon strut bar? Is any one running it? Also not that I have the cash for one but would a EVO titanium strut brace fit a Lancer? More options then the top three.

DC doesn't make one for our car. Check this post out, here is my set I'm getting from RDD.
Can you beat that deal? Awesome paint job + all four bars for a great price?

I hope they do I'm getting one. Should be here tomarrow from SpeedyPerformanceParts.com. There is also one listed with 2kracing.com.

I got the strut brace today and found out that DC Sport does NOT make a brace for the lancer. The one listed on both sites is for the 95-99 Eclipse and will NOT fit. Now SpeedyPerformaneParts is trying to make me pay for the return shipping on a part they advertised wrongly. DAMN them. I called AEM and they confirmed that there is no compatible part for us. I hate false advertisers with a passion, now increased to a hatred. Waiting for weeks for 2kracing to get the part in because it was "back ordered" (how can you back order a part that dosen't exist) now having the wrong part shipped and being charged to return it plus a possible 20% restockig fee!!!! I'm thinking of a lot of words that would be edited out!

I would go RDD all the way... If I had the money personally. All for less, and you're supporting small business.

I am happy with the RRM x-bar. The only other bar I need to get is the rear strut bar. I really don't think I need the other two.

OK, seriously, I hate hearing things like this.

"Some said" ???? Who? Why? What was the reason?

I put every suspension part IN EXISTENCE on my Lancer, and it handled ****ing great. So give a good reason why he should/shouldn't buy stuff. Don't say "someone said." For all we know, that "someone" was an idiot!

DJ, i read on a honda forum a while back that doing all the suspension 'bar mods' would cause oversteer. granted this was from a honda forum but can you verify this or kick it to the curb so i can get on my way?

btw, i'm not that 'somebody' they are talking about a few back. i never asked cause i thought it was bull.

In my opinion, the car handles GREAT after adding everything.

I had: front strut, rear strut, rear sway, rear tie, rear RS bar, upgraded Deyeme bushings (I was a guineau pig) and Tein SS coilovers. If I'm forgetting anything, I apologize. I literally had every suspension part made.

The car handled like a dream. Any oversteer was brought on by the driver (you can too drift a FWD! ), and there was never any "oops, it's oversteering." Not once. The car was completely competent and predictable during cornering.
