Looks nice, is the strut bar designed for nubira or did you use one for some other car?

MocPac informed which strut bar will work. It's for a 93-96 Mitsubishi Mirage. Bought it off of Ebay. You will have to mark and drill new mounting holes, but it's easy.

As for handling I noticed the difference right away! Much better response and more confidence for higher speeds in corners. YOU WILL LIKE!!!

Throttle Body is very tight you will have just over 1/4" clearance and it just touches the clutch master cylinder resevoir.

I was just wondering, would this strut bar fit on a forenza?

Sorry, ignore the comment about 1/4" clearence for the throttle body. Strut bar sits approximately 2" above and 1" back from it.

Jolly I wouldn't know if this bar will fit. Measure the distance from center of bolt on one strut to center of bolt on the other strut and let me know.

Jolly8286 · Post by **Jolly8286** » Sat Sep 17, 2005 5:00 am

The distance between is 43 and 1/2. if you come up with anything let me know. thanks.

Jolly
The distance on my Daewoo is 42", this strut bar should work. However check how wide the diameter is of the hole that the black rubber cover comes up through. The Daewoo is 4", the hole on the strut bar mount is 4 3/4".

I believe its the same, but not so sure that a tow bar can fit on a forenza. If you can look at a pic of a forenza engine and tell me what you think.
