im looking into one of these and i wanted to see what it looks like. the ebay people say that the pic doesnt necessarily apply to the application so i just need to see a legit pic of it for my 93 240sx. yes i know its not cost effective but my ebay strut bar is sitting to close to my fuel stuff for my liking. also since the greddy is like 120 shipped from ebay, if there are any sponsors that can do something similar on a reputable strut bar, let me know as im all for supporting the sponsors.................

wtf $120?? I paid $30 and got a front and rear. Mine looks the same as the Greddy. I doesn't make that much a difference for so much $.

Look how the bar attaches to the mounts. On an eBay bar (I have owned one myself) it is a threaded peice that is thin and will flex. That GReddy bar has a thick bar and connects with a bolt to the mount. MUCH sturdier. I personally run a Nismo/Cusco front bar, but it is the same method. Suspension/chassis components are not to be looked at lightly! Spend the money and get a quality bar!!

I would spend the $ upgrading anti-roll bars instead of a STB that makes a small improvement.

point taken luke but that hundred dollar difference is b/w the strut bar and sway bars is actually noteworthy to the wallet at the moment...............

Hence why I bought coilovers, sways, endlinks, t/c rods, and tie rods before I got a STB
