i've went through hell recently trying to get heat, and windshield wipers back into my car. now today, as i sit here, i am contemplating taking the heater core, blower motor, and all that nonsense out from under my dash. I have a beater and everything that i daily and it would make my modifications so much easier.

who's rocking no heat in a similar climate (MD)?

I think that's because the ef chassis doesn't need it. We already have a nice sturdy place to mount our sway bars. Those bars are made for chassis' that have sway bars mounted to the subframe(eg/dc/ek)

And you're clearly missing bolts that validate the use of it

Any one need traction bars, might be getting rid of the ol ef soon..

Etd gen 2 with all the hardware, I never got a chance to use it and previous owner had it on a shop car. Other than some paint chips, the joints and everything are still fresh.

I'd be worried about the damage that beaks bar would cause to the sub frame if it got caught on something. I've thought about buying one before because they are soo cheap, but I'll just stick with the generic one I have on there, that doesn't effect ground clearance at all. I need to get a set of strut tower bars. Mainly up front, because I don't want to hack up my rear interior...

I would raise that car up. It's way to low for an EF. Looks good though.
