I can't seem to find the Protege parts on your site either...could you please post a direct link? Thank you.
I will keep your info in our records.

Our website is currently down and will be updated with GT SPEC products once we get it back up again.

Where does the rear tie bar fit on the sedan? Any installed photos of this? Thanks for any help!

I thought there was a rear tie bar that would be under the vehicle? Are you selling the lateral arms by chance?

Not anytime soon.

We now offer a trunk cage set. I posted it on a separate thread.

This will help eliminate alot of the understeer that FWD cars have while keeping your rear end flat during hard corners.

I've got the 21.5mm AWR rear sway bar, so I'm looking for a little more stiffness up front to make for a more neutral handling vehicle. I really don't want to go through the hassle of installing a front sway bar. The front lower tie bar and ladder look to be useful...I'm still gathering ideas for what I want though for end goal.

If you want to improve stiffness up front, a lower tie bar or the ladder bar would be a step in the right direction. Having those two together might make your car extremely stiff and run too flat up front and allowing understeer.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks,

Chris

So if you have the AWR rear sway bar then purchase the front tie bar and 4pt linkage bar you're saying it will cause understeer? Does that mean it would be a good idea to get the trunk roll cage thing to combat the understeering?

I ordered the 4-point ladder and front tie bar, I'll be sure to get up pics of install and I'll post a review of what I think of the changes. I'll let you know if the car is more neutral, understeers, or is still oversteering. I believe my parts are in the mail.
