A srut bar? that sounds like where my Japanese buddies always go drinking. any more than $100 and something is rediculous unless it`s carbon fiber or beefy aluminum.

I'd stick with Cusco, well worth the cash, really beefy bars and they run for abut $165. I can tell you it's night and day difference between the cheaper bars. I had to give mine up because I put in a S14 engine and the hump didn't allow my S13 Cusco D shaped strut bar to fit so I had to use my brothers crummy S14 Ebay strut bar... Not cool. Right now I'm saving up for 5 lug spindles so I'm using those elcheapo-ebay bar for now.

Greddy makes nice ones for around $100. Looks sorta like Cuscos.

Anyone ever try to fabacate there own strut bar. Me and a friend where thinking about it. He works with Carbon fiber at work. and we think we can design one. So We are going to try to do the 240 when we get some free time. I will let you know how it goes

Cusco makes nice stuff no question, and price reflects this. I use the 40D but forget how much it was. Phase2 sold me mine.

any1 tried pilot strut bar?

Post by **corn322** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 1:34 pm

I have the pilot bars. they're a lot better looking and built than I thought they would be. I know there are better bars out there, but nothign beats the price.

I'll take some pics if anyone wants.

pictures... please...

Post by **corn322** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 2:54 pm

these pics are really crappy, but oh well.

Post by **corn322** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 2:56 pm

also, the bar is polished aluminum, and is counter-threaded on the other side, so if you twist the bar both sides will tighten.

That looks exactly like the bar I got from Underground Motorsports for like 25 bucks.

what effects are we talking about? those pics composed of a crappy digital camera, and a flashlight. then I bumped up the gamma and adjusted the contrast on the comp.

Yea...I have no idea what Ren is talking about. They just look like regular pictures to me. Maybe kind of night shot effect, but thats about it. Photoshop is pretty crazy.
