body and interior Rear Strut Bar Designs

[gliding_serpent2]

So i have been thinking about a rear strut bar for my occasional track use of my trackable street tii.

I have no reason to relocate the battery for reasons of originality. In that same vane, i am not keen on a bar that requires drilling. That being said, i do not recall seeing a bar that mounts in similar style to the fronts.

Finally, the experts here seem to think the rear is pretty rigid, and further stiffening is not needed.

Can anyone suggest a good bar that does not have a primary role in battery relocation (if i went that route i would go under the bench...)

I guess you would need one that clamps around the shock towers. I don't think I've seen any that don't require drilling or welding for the rear

Could always just cut a big chunk of solid steel and pound it in between the shock towers in the back... Or an expandable shower curtain rod :3

u really dont need one for an "every now and then " track day..........just tighten the nut behind the wheel.

 

and put the funds elsewhere.

My screws are pretty loose as it is.

The shower rod is pure genius!!! Light weight, affordable, and adjustable.

Maybe the best strut bar is actually a 320 lsd.

There are no struts in the back, only shocks. There is no side-load on the shock-towers, and if there were any movement at the shock-towers, the rear bulkhead would buckle and you could see it.  However, if you want to add a little more weight and oversteer, go ahead.  A little sarcasm here.

While we are picking on you, it's "vein," not "vane."

+1  .    Also empty the spare tire, tools, jack, floor mats from the vehicle when doing a track day.

Yes, but to point it out is "vain"

like headers....I feel strut bars are "sexy".....

 

but....

 

 

that being said, and not trying to beat a dead horse here...u really DONT NEED IT. Some really smart "in the know" folks responded here.

 

Just wondering.....how many track days do u have in the car?.......how many do u have in you?....
