I used engine cleaner, that brown s* its oil, dust and grease. I´d spray it all the brown s* with engine cleaner, let it work, and then I wash it with high pressure water.

It clean everything in 2 sec.

Its a STOCK MX-3 Strut bar.

The E-Spec MX-3 GS's got them-- I think as a factory option.

I am not sure if the J-spec ones got them or not. They probably did though.
