Cusco doesn't have a bolt near the strut, am I missing something?

Not really, the Cusco is preloadable, the Neuspeed isn't. Cusco clears a K Neuspeed doesn't. They are both great bars though. I rock the Neuspeed on my beater, and rock the Cusco on the CRX. I notice a difference with both bars, a preloaded Cusco is the most stiffness I've ever noticed from a bar. They are both noticably better than hinged type units, I've used those in the past aswell, they work, but not as good.

Didn't want to do the rings, if they're blacked out, it looks like a police interceptor front end or a taxi, lol.

Jasma's not even a header, it's a stamp of approval, kind of like "CARB" is in Cali. I would just wait and save up for something else.

you say it like im cracking open a piggy bank from mowing lawns all summer for my big bad b16. no.

i jstu have this shitbox b16 in my crx to fart me around town while i build a real motor. that b16 happens to have a completely smashed DC 4-2-1 on it.

i would put a stock manifold on it if i saw one for 50 bucks. anythign is bette than a smashed shittty header. and i figured for 200 that isnt bad. and i cant put a 4-1 on it anyway because its an EF, and NOOOO im not notching my x-member just to cater to this little 150hp piece of ****. im getting a tubular traction bar set up anyway. ill probably just get a 4-2-1 off ebay for 60 bucks just to get the job done for a few months.

BTW, the 2020cc motor will have an RMF drag on it. thats what im crackign my piggy bank for. but first i have to fight randy so we will see how that goes.

well honestly i always see jasma on teh mugen headers so im thinking "oh...cool, yea ill get that, run it for a few months, drop the 2 liter in, and then ebay it some some jdm-er for 4 bills. "

i mean, thats logical right? i jsut made an incorrect correlation between jasma and mugen. silly me. i jsut picked up an sir front end and was totally lost. ask dohc_c-rex. i iddnt know about the bumper support being so "not there" and the headlight buckets being non-existant. but then again you wont ever see me post saying "my d16a6 wont start"

i have seen a different cusco. aluminum in the middle. blue ends. bolts on the ends connecting the aluminum middle to the blue end which is bolted to the strut tower itself. but, its not the "cusco" part im reffering to. its that design. if it has bolts at either end it is useless. those are hinges.

if you took one of those strut bars i speak of, and tied a string next to it from tower to tower. then put a camera so it can see the string and the brace. tak a lap around a track and youll see the string gettign tighter and looser, proving that design is worthless

so let me clear up the cusco strut brace dilemma. the brace with the adjustment in the middle works, and the "hinged" one does not? i'm looking for a front brace and a rear lower tie bar, so I'd like input on this. i'm going to forget a rear strut brace, because the autopower cage i want should do the job fine

I think that is an 88 crx, my old one would kick out real easy. Grant it the driver is being stupid.
