Installed Cusco Strut Brace- Questions
Installed the Cusco Strut Brace, ordered from Amazon, and it took about 45 minutes. After getting everything tightened down I was checking the rigidity of the bar and there's a little play in it. I can move it side-to-side about the width of a thin washer.
Is that normal? I feel like hitting bumps would cause it to rattle.
I placed a washer on the inside of the mount to tighten things up, and it helped. Might do the same to the other side..
Just wanted to see what others have experienced.
Now I have my engine bay looking nice (put on Takeda Short Ram Intakes last week)

True dat. My butt dyno measurements show that car pick power rather quickly, and most gains ar3 between 3k - 5k rpm. Feels like loosing a bit as it approaches redline. Bar is for looks and to justify to the wife why we now have a heavier foot; but theoretically speaking it makes sense in regards of stiffening the front of the car suspension and its value while cornering.

Overall, JFL - (Just-For-Looks). But, I'm also planning on getting sway bars and stiffer (lowering) springs in the future.

I installed the cusco strut bar about 6 months ago.
I felt an increase in handing around sharp curves, I can now take them about 10 mph faster. As for the play, tighten it as much as possible. There shouldn't be any movement
