Default GSR front subframe brace on 92-95s w/ Power Steering?

Is this possible? It doesn't look like it...

The rack is totally in the way of me getting that bar in, nevermind bolting it down.

Here's a pic of the bar in question:



The other side works fine, but that doesn't do me much good.

I had no problems with mine. I have a 94 EX. Did you try both ways to put it on? Try fliping the bar. (right to left/left to right)

Well, there's no way I'm going to be able to bolt it in with the steering rack in the way, in particular that big circular unit near the hard lines.

Just wanted to make sure I was trying to put it in the right spot.

Who wants a subframe brace? $10+s/h. PM me.

Did you even try to put it on? I should fit. If not, your subframe might be mest up. Take the bolts out and try it again. Its a tight fit.

Like I said, the P/S rack is in the way and there is very little space around it so even IF I got it in there, there's no way my hands and a ratchet or a wrench can get in there to bolt it down.

It's not worth the hassle.

I put that brace on my 95 EX coupe no problem. That was when I still had power steering. I still have the brace, but no P.S.

Oh well? That sucks! Didnt the gsr have power steering?
If you unbolt the lines and then put it underneath the lines
and bolt it all back together it should work. I have a few of
the eg6's tie bars if anyone is interested.
