Nice. There is actually shockingly little discussion regarding the strut tower bars. General consensus from random forums seems to be that they're not much use as the car is pretty rigid already. Personally I'm interested because I find the full electric steering on the 86 to be pretty darty and upsettable compared to the hydraulic unit in my STI. In the past I have found that most anything that increases rigidity can help solidify the steering feel of an electric rack a bit so to me with a hydraulic car for contrast the difference may be more noticeable.
@ZachTurnsUp3 күн бұрын
Hydraulic > Power steering > steer-by-wire in my opinion. The 86 has solid steering from the factory but more rigidity never hurt anybody. Im looking to add more oversteer tendency so I think a thicker rear sway bar is up next. But you’re right I’m surprised there isn’t more talk about these in general.

@@ZachTurnsUp definetly can recommend sway bars. I have the perrin 22mm front/25mm rear and they were a good purchase
@ZachTurnsUpКүн бұрын
Was looking at that kit, I like that it's adjustable. 25mm in the back seems like the way to go, with a thinner bar in front just to have better turn-in

@@ZachTurnsUp definetly helps the car feel more oversteer friendly. I run my front on the stiff setting and rear on the middle with whiteline endlinks. Trust me when I say you dont need more than that. Perrin has the "% stiffer than OEM" charts on their page and both of those settings are something like 700% stiffer than stock. Even on my stock perf pack struts on my brz I basically have no body roll. Also running blitz front and rear strut bars and the combo feels solid.

That's gotta drive like it's on rails! Perrin's so good about making their data visible for all their products I love it. Will likely go that route.

FA24; AWE Touring but two additional "hot dogs" fitted in the straight section.. simply superb note.. crackles and pops when worked, no drone, quiet at cruise.. only downside is it'll wake the dead on initial start up... well IMO worth the effort/$ as it transforms the character of the car..

@davidgoliath59012 ай бұрын
@@nosunnn I anticipate they are called different things in different countries. Google "hot dog muffler" and you'll see what I used. That's what we call them in Australia. They are a straight through muffler that just tones things down a bit. I found the Touring to be too much 'boy racer' look at me for my tastes. The addition of the two straight through mufflers knocked perhaps 15% off the noise which makes it really pleasant but still full of character when the revs rise. The standard factory set up sounded terrible to me.. hope that helps :)

Noble Full Titanium Single Exit: Light and very Inexpensive for Titanium...however it is loud AF. I have the Noble and use it only for track days. I switch to the mature sounding APEXi N1 single exit for the road. Both are perfect after you disconnect the fake cabin sound. Not so sure I would want the Noble on a daily though unless you live in the country. I'm a single exiter, and I have the Versus block off plate.
