I'll do a run of 10--(still trying to get caught up) I can have them plain/powdercoated and with without battery box. What is the interest out there?

+1 for Powdercoated black like the front w/ battery tray (maybe that will give me the drive to finally move the battery)

Im very interested as well, but would like to see where the place ment would be of the battery box, even just a picture of a S13 trunk with a red X where it will be located will help tremendously

I don't have an rb but would this be a better option than different bars? looks very sturdy plus firewall mounts.

Also, is it available for s14?

The idea of this stut bar is for the swaps that you would otherwise not be able to run a tie bar with--like a rb25 that uses the stock plenum or a sr/Kat that uses a top mount turbo.

***the last two bars of this run went out today*****

We will be doing another run after the rear bar and heat shield run

Received the front bar. Nice work!Be sure to post pics of your rear bar. Even a drawing showing what you have planned would be cool. I will probably pick one of these up also.Will the tray be for a standard battery size?

Yes we have 15 more bars bent up that will go for S13 and S14 bars---we need to make some more feet and finish the prototype S14 bar. Look for them to be available in Feb

Yes, I'm still interested in a rear bar.

And beyond that I'm now jealous because the 1st run of fstb's didn't have the welded on supports close to the feet

Hi Rotorimp,

I purchased this bar and I love it. I have a request though. Next, can you reproduce the Do-Lucky front ladder bar shown below:

http://www.intensepower.com/frontladderbar.html

I tried to get the JGY customs copy but aparantly they don't produce it anymore and the authentic Do-Lucky is also discontinued. I know AZHitman has a front and rear set so maybe you could copy his one?

thats what i was saying... we need more braces over the chassis especially underneath it'd be awesome, i was saying subarus and evos have lots of these options... why not s13 :P and im pretty sure scooby and evo chassis are more stiff than an s chassis haha

When ever the next run of s13 bars come outs, count me in. If you decide to do a rear bar with battery tray for the coupe, count me in on that as well. Subscribed!

OMG, this is EXACTLY what i have been looking for. I wanted a front strut bar for a little added rigidity on my VQ swapped S13 but I had to cut and cowl the hood just to get the engine to fit......no way a bar was fitting over that. and now here you are!!!!!do you have any made, can i order one and most importantly how much are they, cuz im running low on cash again after the VQ swap.

If anyone is interested, I have one of these braces for sale. What happened was I purchased one for my friend, but he didnt tell me that he had ABS until we received it. So instead of modifying the bracket, he has decided to sell it. Selling for $150 shipped. Email me at if interested, thanks
