Best strut tower bar (front) for 6th gen civic
Looking for a good front strut tower bar for a 6th gen civic. It is a boosted civic with an ls motor, so it doesnt have the up-facing throttle body anymore to worry about (its a dx). What is a good brand and model? I want one that connects to each strut as well as to the firewall for extra stiffness.

I use a carbing bar, it is a 3-point bar like you want. They also offer a M/C brace if you want.
PasswordJDM sells 3-point braces also.

The Password were actually built more rigid than the Carbing. I was also lectured on why you do not want a master cylinder brace. Yes firewall flex happens and you can clearly see it but people have actually tweaked their shock towers from such braces. Sounds crazy I know but apparently it happens.

Neuspeed Shock Tower Bar
I asked this question a while back....both Tyson and Patric recommended this bar, I couldn't be happier as an owner myself...and I'm not going to crumple my firewall if I get in an accident.
Think THMotorsports still has them in stock for 6gen.
Neuspeed bars can be found for as low as $130, I got my Sprint shock tower bar for $60 Shipped, New.
