Strut bars

[deejaykay2345]

Has anyone installed strut bars? I found some for sale off a German website {http://www.orange-tuning.de/shop/fahrwerk-streben-c-29_166_343_1053.html?language=en} Would they help on handling? im planning to track my car this summer. I know the w202's aren't fast but I'm trying to make mine handle the corners at least. I already have H&R sport cup kit and planning on getting H&R sway bars after I get my renntech exhaust installed.

1st off, there's no reason a w202 cant be fast.

From the way the suspension is set up, dont really think a strut bar will offer that much support, i think there would be better things you could do, like subframe braces (rear subframe cracks under hard use...)

[deejaykay2345]

well if you dont have an amg then you're not making a w202 fast. you'll have to drop a lot of money if you dont have an amg

anyways wouldnt the strut bar stiffing up the chassis?

[Dearlove]

yes it would.

c230k can be fast, hell if your good at DIY a c280 with a turbo will rape, the v6 c280 with a c32 engine conversion will be fast...
