Euro Sport Rear Stress Bar - VW Mk2/Mk3
SKU:
Our rear stress bars are designed to minimize rear chassis flex under hard cornering, thus reducing understeer and improving stability. Constructed of heavy wall 7/8" diameter steel tubing and features heavy duty laser cut and welded ends. After a quick bolt on installation you'll notice that you've retained over 90% of your trunk space! Legal for SCCA IMPROVED TOURING and STREET PREPARED classes. Finished in gloss black powder coat.
Fitment:
VW Mk2 Golf 8v/16v 1985-1992
VW Mk2 Jetta 8v/16v 1985-1992
VW Mk2 Corrado G60/VR6 1990-1994
VW Mk3 Golf 8v/VR6/GTI 1993-1998

So I have a Mk3 gti and the car is heavily modified for handling purposes and the last piece of the puzzle was rear chassis stiffness and the car is indeed more stiff but when driving it like before I can’t really tell if there’s an improvement if there is, for me it was small it’s definitely not anything bad and I would say it’s an good purchase

Solid quality piece, My GTI handles even better now! Very satisfied with my purchase. Shipping was super fast!! And great price! Thanks Euro Sport!

Thank you David :-)
Fit was perfect, quality hardware and finish. Despite my pessimism the bar made a tangible change to the feel of the car, for the better. First time I've run a rear bar in any of my VW's, wish I'd have done it sooner. Vehicle: 93 Corrado SLC

Installed the rear strut tower brace and a small noticeable stiffen in turns, but have Installed front strut tower brace and lower brace

Does it work? Short answer yes. Long answer, for 90$ you really get what you pay pay for. Personally I think euro sport could have made it a little nicer, and used some kind of adjustment link. If Eurosport ever did release such a stress bar I would buy, but definitely for the money it’s worth it. Night and day differences for my application.

Easy install, cleaner/ crisper cornering. Happy with purchase! Justin in Maryland

It’s an amazing product And id recommend this company to anyone?

Thank you Shawn :-)
As described.......Easy install.
good...............
Easy to install and it makes a huge difference, even with customs it was easy ordering to Canada and fast. Only thing missing is a sticker to put on my window... advertising works you know lol
Shipping was great considering I'm in Canada, ordered this and front stress bar for my mk3 gti, haven't installed the stress bar yet but this rear brace was easy to install, my giant sub box still fits with room to spare, and I'm very impressed with how well it works.
After purchasing the upper front stress bar, I knew I had to get the rear aswell. I definitely do recommend this one too.
Installed after removing rear deck and strut bracing metal. Looks clean but the end clamps remind me of exhaust hardware. 95 jetta weight 1,960lbs with 1/4 tank gas and handeling feels the same which was expected since all oem bracing was removed.
It showed up well packaged and had a great finish on it. Good quality bar and fasteners. The problem comes with the instructions - there weren't any. It didn't come with any and I then did a five minute search of the website for some... nothing. Obviously it's pretty easy to figure out how it goes on, but holding the bar up to my rear struts, there was a good 10 mm difference in alignment (aka the strut towers were wider than the bar). So I tried my best to unload the suspension and slowly alternate tightening each side until eventually they came together. But then what are the torque specs of the nuts I dunno. Good-n-tight it is. Overall, I'm happy with the bar. I'm a stickler for proper instructions though.

Super easy to install and definitely stiffens up the rear nicely for Autocross.
I ordered a eurosport rear strut bar to go along with my front strut bar I previously purchased. Helped with my understeer through the cayons runs. Love my vw. Thanks
Easy to install and the difference is amazing! Definitely worth it!

A quick and easy install with amazing results in tracking and handling without much compromise to the trunk capacity.
