ABOUT ULTRA RACING'S VEHICLE SAFETY BARS

Ultra Racing is also the first in the country to introduce the multi-point bars, which gives superior performance against conventional bars in distributing the forces being stressed to the chassis. Followed by feedback collected from street and race track testing, enhancing, strengthening and improving the safety of the vehicle is our priority:

  • Design Philosophy – Enhance and strengthening the chassis of the vehicle without altering or affecting the original chassis specifications. Improve driving dynamics and drive comfort.
  • Safety Philosophy – Individually designed products to suit to different vehicles. The shape, material thickness and material strength is specially selected and chosen to minimize chassis damage and passengers injuries during an impact.

Ranging from Front Strut Bars, Rear Strut Bars, Side Fender Bars, Front Lower Arm Bars, Anti Sway Bars, Side Floor Bars to Torsion Bars. Made-to-order service is also available. All the products are designed with safety and superior handling in mind.

When people buy from us, we always recommend Stage 01 sets. And before you ask what is a Stage 01 set, you can read about a Stage set guide here.

All the products that we produced made out of a 100% completely stock vehicle with no modifications at all just so we can get the accurate placement of everything that the car has offered, and find out their weak spots as well. The weak spots of the vehicle help us determine how the chassis was designed.

Honda Civic EK3 vs Civic EK9

To meet different levels of demand in the market, most of the car manufacturers produce a car with different specific cations. Cars with the higher-spec (eg. Honda Civic EK9 (aka Type R)) often come with enhancements such as tuned engine, different with size with different lug nut patterns, better brakes, high performance suspension system, and a chassis tuned to handle the performance.

The EK9 is a special vehicle while the EK3 is just a normal economy car. One of our goals is to produce a front strut bar for economical cars since we find them useful to solve underlying issues that the front wheels and strut towers are experiencing regardless whether the car is powerful or not.

Video Demonstration

This is a video demonstration on what can our products do. This consists of two Toyota Vios XP150 vehicles, one with the Stage 01 Ultra Racing products set and another without it. This demonstrates how our products tell you why you really need it. And take note, these cars are economical cars and they're not used in the race track either but they are used on the road regardless of what speed you run.

PRODUCT BENEFITS

Weather Defects

Weather is another top killer to vehicle’s chassis; rain water which consists of acidic content would be damaging chassis components.

Chassis Ageing

Old vehicle’s chassis will start to crack and unwanted noise will also be generated. Unwanted noise is usually creaking noises that happens on the rear side of the vehicle even after replacing the bushings, and shocks and springs of the vehicle for preventive maintenance.

Aftermarket Suspension Modifications

Improper suspension modification can lead to permanent damage to the chassis and unwanted noise will appear. This applies to any vehicle, be it a 4X4 pick-up truck or a small hatchback especially if your vehicle has been equipped with air ride suspensions.

Heavy Power Modifications

High vehicle enhancement modifications such as engine swap will cause improper weight allocation and brings damage to the chassis. This also includes adding more power to the engine via engine tuning.

Other Issues That Will Cause A Car Life Span Goes Faster

Uneven Tire Wear

When a car experiences a body roll whether turning left or right on high or low speeds, the tires' rubber on the front wheels tend to wear unevenly. Our product such as the front strut bar, will help balance the tire wear this way. Most of our customers experience uneven tire wear and unwanted vibrations from the front. With our Front Strut Bar, this solves the problem eventually to help balance out the weight. Even if you have done an alignment and you're pulling either left or right, having a Front Strut Bar reduces that chance of uneven tire wear on the long term.

Suspension Forces

When a car turns into body roll, will affect life of the suspension system. Causing vibrations and bouncy rides to come as the car ages (in Tagalog, this is known as "tagtag". When a customer says "matagtag ang sasakyan", it means the vehicle is experiencing body shakes, sways, and can feel road vibrations).

Product Material Information

Choosing us as your first brand for Vehicle Safety Bars means you have made the right choice. With our products, you are (UR) safe (pun intended).


To go into detail, Ultra Racing strut bars are being designed to absorb the impact and minimizing the possible damages due to the chassis in an event of collision. With promising characteristic, Ultra Racing strut bars will not only provide solid handling but also a shield to the passengers.

Ultra Racing strut bar’s material are first being carefully selected, the brackets are being constructed by steel plates with the thickness of 4mm – 5mm in order to provide a strong brackets which would be able to hold each corner with strong holding power hence providing a solid and responsive handling.


Secondly the hollow steel tubes and oval tubes are being constructed with the size of only 1.2mm to 1.6mm of thickness which would not affect the handling delivered to the vehicle while impact can be absorbed without causing damage to the opposite side where the collision happens.

Our chassis bars do not compromise the car's performance nor makes the car gain more weight unlike normal steel-material strutbars from other brands (or custom made bars made by car shops specializing in the chassis tuning field). 

MATERIAL SPECIFICATION & DESIGN

Every materials used are carefully selected to ensure the best performance and safety. The brackets are made of 4mm to 5mm steel plates, while the hollow steel tubes and oval tubes are of 1.2mm to 1.6mm thickness. These materials are selected to ensure the bars are rigid and strong to maintain constant geometry at all times, yet safe enough to crumble during an impact for safety reason.

All our raw materials has been made and tested with satisfactory result.

Why do we use Carbon Steel instead of other materials (Aluminum, Alloy, Titanium, etc...)

First, carbon steel is stronger than other materials for the same size and thickness. In order for aluminum or alloys to be at least the same strength as carbon steel, it has to be at least double the thickness (steel 4mm = aluminum 8mm). When that happens, weight saving is not so apparent anymore. Of course there are also exotic materials and alloys that can match the strengths of carbon steel, but the cost are astronomically high and therefore not very cost effective to bring into mass production. Even other well-known brands know this philosophy. 

Our Products Can Be Used On

Daily Driven Cars/Family Cars

Everyday, 7 out of 10 Malaysian Families and households rely on our products to ensure their vehicles are up to the task. Our products help improve ride comfort and eventually reduce the damage caused by weather effects and ageing.

Track Cars

Unlike daily driven cars or family cars, track cars are often used on the race track. They need our products to ensure their cars will last on the track especially at intensive speeds. Of course, family cars are slow but they'll outlive track cars.
