So i gots me a strut tower bar off of e-bay, i have no clue what brand... On the sticker on it when i got it it said for a Mazda Miata, but it was crossed through and they put Protege 95-98 on it.. All I know is that it is a 45mm bar, and it is flat with holes in it, and it came from ProCarParts.com........

So far after havin it 1 day i noticed i feel more bumps in the road and the steering is stiffer...

I have the same one from CarPartsPro.com It is a pretty good deal. I really notice difference at high speeds like on the highway ramps. And very little in the city. I can't wait for my rear strut bar to come in. I want to see the difference then. As for the bumps, they seem to feel the same to me.

i notice the front of my car , hits every bump hard , regardless of tire pressure and has a tendency to skate over bumpy corners ...
i don't know if this is due to the strut bar and all my shocks are on 1 , the softest setting

What did you guys do about the Cruise Control bracket that is on the passanger side strut tower????? I just took a jig saw and cut off the part that was in the way, i tightened down the other bolt for it really tight so it doesn't rattle around...

I do not have cruise control, so I do not how to help you out there. You should have called first (CarPartsPro). I think they sell two separate ones, one for cruise control, and one for without. But since you have won it on ebay, i think you should be ok, if you just cut that part out. Do a research on it. It has been talked about before.
