I heard many people recommend to install for your car.
So is it effective in reducing body roll and improve safety or just placebo effect ?
Do you install Ultra Racing Safety Bar ?

To me the biggest difference on my Honda City is the ARB. The tower strut and lower strut macam no feel.
The ARB immediately can feel the difference in handling. |

if it is good. then it will already be included stock..
yes, it maybe improved in certain aspect but it will sacrifice on another i.e comfort. This post has been edited by brkli: Sep 21 2021, 02:59 PM |

If it is effective till you feel it, then it may just become a std. item.
Here we are looking at deminishing returns. |

Even if doing something can save just 10cents while at the cost of driving experience or safety, manufacturers will still not hesitate to do so. |

ok la, body roll got reduced abit.
the less sampan feeling, the better for it to me. even toyota and nissan service center offering it, it might do at least something. This post has been edited by zerorating: Sep 21 2021, 03:07 PM |

QUOTE(genjo @ Sep 21 2021, 03:01 PM) Sorry but need to ask first cause i was quoted near RM 750... you ask yourself.. do you drive you car at high speed an take cornor like everyday of your driving time?? or you just drive like what ia taught at driving school, slow down when taking corner.If it does not help , then i dont want to waste my money. if you drive like a manaic, it maybe can help reduce the body roll when u taking sharp corner at high speed. also if you dun mind that ride get slightly harsher (not so comfort) when u drive normally as u connect your suspension which is intended to operate slightly loose/independant for comfort purpose... ukiya21 liked this post

Better opt for a stiffer suspension than depending on some bar that claim to have magical effect.

I'm not installing one but many of my fren mentioned it does improved the handling and body roll especially in MPV.
But you'll lose a bit of comfort for the passenger.. the car will feel a bit stiff, like soft suspension vs hard one. So, choose one |

But it makes ride uncomfortable, that's why OEM don't use thick ARB. |

Good god. The amount of misinformation on this thread is crazy.
Anti roll bars are attached to the bottom of your control arms. When one side leans on cornering load, the opposite pushes in inside wheel down. This helps limit roll...but also makes the suspension "less independent" (since you tied your suspension together). Yes a bigger antiroll bar can impact ride comfort and could also make the car handle too sharply for inexperienced drivers on the road. These ultra bars are chassis stiffeners. They are not anti roll bars. Do they work? Yes. A stiffer chassis will handle better as it takes the works of the suspension from dealing with chassis flex. However it is usually useless for road cars. Some chassis flex is needed for comfort. If you need chassis stiffening like this for your old car, likely all the chassis welds are broken. Better buy a new car instead. Really if you really must add these things, a front 3 point tower brace and rear strut brace is all you need....any more you better weld in a roll cage. Manufacturers are trying to make cars as light as possible and we keep on adding in more weight. |

QUOTE(jaycee1 @ Sep 21 2021, 05:48 PM) Good god. The amount of misinformation on this thread is crazy. yup, add more bars and weight to car, drive and corner like maniac.. then complain why no comfort, no fuel economy..Anti roll bars are attached to the bottom of your control arms. When one side leans on cornering load, the opposite pushes in inside wheel down. This helps limit roll...but also makes the suspension "less independent" (since you tied your suspension together). Yes a bigger antiroll bar can impact ride comfort and could also make the car handle too sharply for inexperienced drivers on the road. These ultra bars are chassis stiffeners.

If you pek corners here & there, everyday like takumi...then install the bars.
If not, use money to install nicer ICE. |

Remember the old saga was under 800kg and the wira under 1000kg for the lightest models. They were far far lighter then. Same goes to other 80s Honda's and Toyota's which where just over 1T for equivalent models. |
