    I've got one of those. Seriosuly though, they are alot better then the crap bar Ractive sells. You'll be happy with your purchase.

      Yeah, from what I understand a one-piece bar is MUCH better. I also have the mazdaspeed rear strut bar which is a one-piece design. (got that on eBay too)

            while you're out there, you might as well adjust your air/fuel ratio by smell... and your tire pressure by ride height

                Thats the second one i've seen pop up now....I've had mine (front bar from Rod Millen MOtorsports) for almost 13 years and never saw more than one other before...

                Good find indeed.

                Marc, check your PM box

                  Great find Marc, congrats!

                  So Darryl, is there any way you could use one of these as a template for your prototype? I'm sure Dave wouldn't mind - as long as it didn't get destroyed of course!

                    I have one dude! the shop has mine for the model, but in order to make it strong, the endlinks need to be stamped like the OEM one, there's no simple way to make it fit, look good and perform without a stamped endlink. That is, if you use all 4 of the mounting holes (well, it only use 3 of the 4)

                        awsome i bet that will be alot better then the generic strut braces we buy off ebay. Thicker and more stability and bracing. Im just guessing.

                        Lemme know how it feels bro!

                          It's not all that beefy, but it's definetely stronger than any others.
