Cool Aristo Strut bar Install (first gen GS STB for sale)

I recently got a set of Aristo strut bars from Japan. I installed one of them today on my 93GS3. I used to have a vibration in the steering wheel when braking. I assumed it was just the rotors, even though I have brembo's, I planned on replacing them when I did the next brake pad change. I noticed after I installed the strut bar the vibration was gone, hmmm? I tried heavy and soft braking, still no vibration. I know some other GS3'S have the same problem.

turbogs300,

Looks more like this post is really a 'for sale' post, not an install post and I'm moving it to the classifieds. PM me if I misread it please

Please post your asking price for the strut bar per forum rules .

I thought it was pretty informative. I never would have seen it if it were in the For Sale section. I have that same vibration under braking sometimes.. even with the Mk4 brakes and and dimpled/slotted rotors up front and stainless lines all around.

Agree that it was informative E... I left a redirect in the forum so everyone will still see the post and get coverage in both forums that way.

Cool

I had already placed an ad in classifieds, however I wanted to give some feedback once I installed the strut bar As well as call attention to the fact that I had an extra one for sale. Blaze, Lex Dawg contacted me first after seeing my classified ad, so I sold it to him, If I get anymore I'll keep you in mind.

That's cool that the strut bar fixed the vibration in your case. Mine vibrated pretty badly but I turned the rotors and its super smooth now.

brembos are pretty bad about coming to you brand new and in need of a turning.
did you get a rear bar with it to?
and is it the stock style one or something better?

Eric, it's the stock front bar! i didn't know there was a rear bar, I'll have to look into it as well.
