damn I love those Carbing strutbar but can't see shelling out like 300 bones for one but they sure look beefy and well crafted for the money.

i have the carbing 3 pt strut bar but i can't get it on becuase the brake resovior is in the way, i got a 94 cx with integra gsr booster and master cylindar and the brake resovior for the gsr is huge so it just hits the resovior and won't go on.

You need a 99 GSR M/C to make this work. i had a 96 GSR M/C and it didnt work.

What are the benifits of a "real deal spoon valve cover"?

what series teins do you have?

A lot of people here will hate on the edfc but I like the option... I always wanted cockpit tunable shocks.

If I'm too off topic, then hate on me, its cool.

But.....why spend so much money on a "spoon" valve cover?

How does this have an advantage over a normal strut tie bar?

Default Re: Carbing 3-ponit strut bar w/ EDFC on my EK (JDM_EK161)

Are there any clearence issues with the EDFC. Tein claims "Not Enough room for EDFC motor installation". Did you do anything to make it fit?
