Which front tie bar is everyone using with large downpipes ???
Looking to buy a front tie bar, just wondering what brands some of you guys with 3 inch+ downpipes. What mods if any had to be done to get them to fit?

im assuming you are speaking of a "traction bar" ?? or are you talking about a bar that connects the bolts that hold the LCA to the subframe ? if that is the case.... i didnt know anyone used them.. haha

have you looked at ebay, i recently had a customers car here, and he had one. its just a cheap *** aluminum bar, but it has a slight downward bend to it. it was not straight across like the Benen bar posted up above.

i have seen many of those ones you are talking about break into pieces..
but i didnt even know these bars were so popular LOL, they do nothing but get in the damn way of everything and speed bumps.

I'll have to take a look at them.
They only one I found that looks like it might fit is the Cusco bar:

Re: (Doostur)
The Cusco bar looks almost IDENTICAL to my Neuspeed bar. If it is the same bar, it will not fit either. It barely fit when I was running my Kamikazee header and a 2.5" downpipe.

I have searched google, ebay, forums and found nothing. I only found others in the same boat as me. After thinking about it, if you found one that cleared a 3 inch downpipe, i bet it would bottom out all the time. So maybe thats why.

Ya I couldn't find it either. Can you check to see if the one you have in the shop would clear a 3 inch downpipe? Just give us an estimate?
