Thoughts on PRL Front & Rear Strut bars?

[Bbarrera_55]

Looking around as usual for more goodies to blow my money on the FL5 lol. I'm looking into the PRL Front & rear strut bars to stiffen the chassis up even more already for track days. I know there's heavy discussion on if they even make a difference on the FL5 platform as it's already very stiff.

Full Bolt ons + flex fuel E30 + Swift lowering springs + RV6 rear sway bar

500$ on something that your not even sure works. Stack the money for other parts that actually do something lol

If you do track days, you might be better off getting a rear sway bar (eibach, karcepts, etc) or camber adjustment mods first.

What wheels/tires are you running? What about Camber?

I agree also lol. Why Im asking if anyone has experience with them. Especialy the rear more than the front

Already have RV6 sway bar installed. Camber is already on my to do list. Its more of a supporting mod to tie everything together

stock wheels and tires for now. Camber is already on my to do list

i would get track wheels/200TW tires and then camber before spending on anything else.

outside of seat time, that will get you the best bang for your buck

How do you like the RV6 sway bar?

I will second bigbird for the 200TW tires especially since you have a beefier sway bar.

The rear feels a little stiffer but could be placebo. I do have a last of the year track day event this weekend so we'll see

Sounds like you'll eventually get it anyways if you're going to build your car and run out of things to buy haha. I didn't want to do the rear because of the trunk space, I utilize the hatch.

There will be a sale on these coming up so I'd wait a little.

with a new stiffer bar, that is definitely true, so no placebo.
