Model Reviewed: Honda Prelude

Strength:

Stiffer chassis in both front and rear. Definitely reduces flex and body roll. Compliments engine bay and trunk. This is the highest quality available.

Weakness:

The price was a little steep but you get what you pay for and I payed for the best. You can't go wrong with Spoon. The Spoon Sports logos are on the brackets and not the bars. The brackets have a black finish so you wouldn't know it's Spoon unless you look closely or Drive the car. Had to divert some wiring in the front. Just unsecure the brackets or have them go over the bar.

I got the front and rear Spoon strut bars for my BB6 as a package for $350 from RandDMotorsports.com. Right off the back, I feel the improvement. My Lude handles more stiff and I'm able to handle curves 10, sometimes 20, miles over normal speeds. Accelerating at the apex of curves and turns has never been more fun. I've even been able to keep my car planted drifting in snow with minimum body roll. They definitely reduce my chassis flex both front and rear. I don't feel my car tipping or tires struggling any more. I can't wait to complete the package with both tie rods. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for suspension upgrades for his or her late model Honda or Acura. Spoon Sports is the brand to go with. The quality is superb and the strut bars definitely live up to the Spoon name. They compliment my ride in every way. The Prelude should come stock with these. There's no wonder why they're one of the top Honda tuners in Japan. The polished finish is top quality and compliments any engine bay or trunk. With some "never dull" you can keep them gleaming.

Strength:

Good looks in the chrome bar and the black mounts. It's nice and stiff, if I yank on it it moves the whole car. Plus its a cool JDM brand and you can actually say you have spoon stuff on your car

Weakness:

none really

Looks good, holds up stiff, and its tight JDM Spoon goodness!

Model Reviewed: Honda Prelude

Strength:

Minimizes chasis flex. Handles more stiff on curves. Looks great under the hood.

Weakness:

It could have a better "Spoon Sports" logo on it.

It was hard to find but I found a front one. This strut bar is the best out there. You can't find anything better. It reduced chassis flex to almost next to zero. My 'Lude handles stiff like a box and I can feel it as I stomp the gas at the apex of a curve.

None. Go for the best the first time. You definitely get what you pay for.

Model Reviewed: 1996 Honda Civic

Strength:

Excellent fitment, almost OEM. Strength and stiffness. JDM.

Weakness:

Pricey... especially directly from the manufacturers.

I bought the strut tower bars and lower tie bars for the front and rear. I know its a bit overkill, but IMO, I believe its worth every penny spent for it. Improved overall handling, a little bit more understeer for slow turns, but high speed cornering is outstanding. Eliminates the "tipping over" feel almost completely. Definitely stiffer than the DC Sports bars. Gives the car that "JDM" look too.

Model Reviewed: 1998 prelude

Strength:

build quality, installations

Weakness:

little pricey

This product is sweet. The build quality is exceptional. You truly get what you pay for with this setup. 170 for the front strut bar and 195 for the rear. Price is kind of steep, but the quality between this and the dc sport unit is night and day. At stock height the benefit is minimal but noticable. When you lower your car is when you unleash the potentail of this product. The looks are top notch. This company truly puts out some of the best aftermarket products.

Model Reviewed: 1999 Civic B18B hybrid

Strength:

Perfect fit, awesome finish. They are soo solid and well built. The price was resonable for the quality of the parts. The strut bars were $160 each and the front lower tie bar was $120. Many companies make cheap-o $20 strut bars, but the strength and quality of those pieces just isn''t good enough for me to put on my car.

Weakness:

None.

I''m running the Spoon front and rear strut tower bars, and front lower tie bar. They made a nice improvement in high speed cornering and stability.

Model Reviewed: 95 Prelude

Strength:

Light weight... Strong... Polished... Easy to install... It is SPOON Sports!!

Weakness:

No Spoon logo on bar?? Only on the brace. :(

Only had the bar on for a week, and I can tell that the car doesn''t understeer as much. I know most of you would think that paying that much for a strut bar is stupid, but this Spoon bar doesn''t cost a lot more than DC Sports, Neuspeed, etc. In fact, it is cheaper than some brands. I love my car so I think it deserves something decent.
