for the most part it looks like it should clear everything. if i remember correctly i think my sol has those holes on the firewall too. i'll see if i can find more info tho. dont wanna make any false confirmations

It should fit, as long as those holes are on the firewall.
if you are interested I am selling an alum type 2 bar

btw- nice site, looks good so far(i'm assuming its a work in progress). I need to get around to actually designing mine instead of the crap i have now. I'm too busy learning other progams though

Also, how much?

if i remember correctly the carbing bar was designed for a gsr so it will fit
however, i believe people have been having problems with the bar clearing the TPS sensor
There was some way around this but I dont remeber what it was

I checked and saw two holes where i believe it would mount, but they were plugged, probably not hard to unplug....

yea i think when i mounted my oil press sensor for my gauge i made a lil bracket that i used and one end mounted to one of those holes right in the top middle of the firewall. i doubt unplugging will be too much of a hassle. i haven't heard anything about clearance issues yet. i've seen pics of the bar clearing a b-series in an EG bay and i've heard several people claim they still have plenty of clearance to spare.

that bar will will sweeeet under ur hood man

EDIT: oh yea i almost forgot to ask: what did you use to fasten the EG lip to ur bumper and how did the install go? i'm thinkin gettin one for my sol. thanks

The carbing bars were designed for the Type-r integra

You're thinking of the JGE triangulated bar. It's around $135.
