Lil' updates...


I got my Cusco front strut tower bar in. A strut bar helps stiffen the chassis, and an FSTB specifically improves steering response, like, a lot. Instructions were all in japanese...now that was funny! All except one sentence, something like "Attention this product is legal for use in Japan only"...anyways it is a nice blue bar, looks like this where it attaches to the strut tower:




Its a real nice unit, its designed for the N14 chassis (Nissan Pulsar GTi-R) and the way it angles back towards the firewall was to allow clearance for the top-mounted intercooler on that car. here is one:




It so happens the N14 and the B13 share suspensions...so here's the bar, in someone else's Sentra:



So thats that. Steering is tight as heck now. Now I need an LSD in my transmission and stickier tires...
