neuspeed upper bar
I retract what I was thinking about earlier on how the second upper strut bar would not do much more than the first because I was looking at the actual strut mount, and the neuspeed mounts to the actual strut bolts, where as the acura strut bar mounts to two additional bolts that are drilled into the frame/sheetmetal. linking both parts of the car together and I will say you do notice a bit of difference. adding a lower strut bar I think would be detrimental because then the front end would be like a brick-not flexible at all...
Here is what I felt.
First, the steering feel was more precise. The car seemed to respond to inputs quicker than before. THis seemed to help side to side transitions and create a more sporty feel
Drastic increase in road feel and suspension communcication through wheel. I could much better feel what the suspension was doing. I assume that this is due to the stiffer front structure allowing the body to transmit movements that were absorbed in front end flex before. On my old S2000 this feeling gave a great feel of what the car was doing...on this car it made the car feel more heavy than it already is.
While I enjoyed it for a while, I really grew tired of feel. I think it was a case of it feeling "Different" not necessarily "Better".

Actually, those 2 bolts are part of the upper suspension cup, just like the other 3.
