Ive got all kinds of cool TQ forward parts and I'm close friends with one of the co-owners and i'll let every one know that there products work like a charm!!! the rear bar is blast in a hard corner it makes the rear end a little more fun to toss around.

I'll post pics of parts if ya'll want.

for my ion sedan could I have say the Progress rear sway bar and then your rear strut bar? they appear to be the same thing but never know...
its not a sway bar its simply a bar that ties the rear suspension togather and holds it so it cant flex outwards.

it does work.

It sure is. And 06 has described everything well. It doesn't allow the suspension to flex as much making tight corners a lot more fun at higher speeds.

My partner handles the rear bars. I left him a message asking what shipping to Canada would be. I'll get back to you as soon as I know! Thanks....

Ben

P.S. I know for the torque braces it usually runs about 5 bucks more but I'm not even worrying about it with this sale.

Shipping will be 10 bucks extra to Canada. So 65-10 buck group buy discount+10 bucks shipping ='s 65 shipped.

Thanks!

I misunderstood someone. If you want JUST the engine brace it's 75. If you need the brackets with it it's the full 100 minus whatever group buy discount is available. The dual brace is 175 shipped to your door. Hope that clarifies things.

the dual brace is pretty simple to do. I;ve done a few with rice eater down in indi and it seems to go farily easy and works like a champ!

We have instructions online. If you have a socket set and a jack you should be able to install this.

I have access to a socket set, and i think our cars even come with a jack in the trunk, but why would i need the jack? also i see the 2 holes on the left side of the engine to mount the dampener, that i can do, but (without me going to my car to check) is it the same setup on the other side?

So how is that any different than a sway bar?

So the sway bar and stabilizer bar essentially do the same thing?

a sway bar applys force on both sides on the Suspension while driveing and cornering.

the TIE bar just holds the sides togather...it stops them from flexing outwards durring a hard corner.

it acts SOMEWHAT like a thicker rear bar in the aspet that you can get the back to come around a little easyer in a hard corner so it take some of the front end push out of the car.

i've got pics!

whole bar


left side


rite side

Nah we try not to sell useless crap. Everything that we sell has been designed because no one else made it and the car needed it. This company is a colaboration of people making products for our cars so that we don't have to wait for companies to promise they'll come out with something and then lose interest. I'm one of many dedicated people trying to make sure there's plenty of aftermarket support. We've been working on heads, cams, computer tuning, etc....

In some cases other companies have beaten us to the punch and in some cases we're totally kickin butt. But, we still sell a quality product for less than you can purchase it anywhere else EVEN ON SALE!!!

As for the group buy, I posted it in another thread but we ended up with 13 torque brace sales so 13% will be refunded to you. They should be shipping june 1st. The braces were shipped today and the brackets I will order on Monday when i'm back at home and can give the machinist the order info. They said about a week for production but i'll keep you updated.

Thanks

Benjamin

Real owners always help out a lot. Even though I run this stuff on my car too it's just somehow more believable from an independent source
