The differences as a driver are pretty subtle, you notice a little less NVH I suspect mostly cause of keeping your strut sections in line with each other, less feeling of anything giving out exiting out of tighter corners and so on. Some say no they don't feel anything and I was skeptical as well. I went one full week without one and that was after 6 months straight of having one and I can say for sure I noticed 100% just in street driving alone.

Is there a reason you switched to the Grimmspeed strut bar? I'm trying to decide between Grimmspeed and Hotchkis. I was under the impression the Hotchkis being one piece would be to an advantage...?

No they work equally well. Just wanted to try something different for looks is all.

Well been a good ride but everything comes to an end. Sold my FR-S last week.

Not sure what's next we shall see may take a year away from cars all together and order something come winter or next year. Enjoyed this community and the cars and people's enthusiasm.

Be well people.
