Default question for koni yellow users (eg)

Hello all:

I am wondering what front strut bar u guys r using in order to have an easy access to the ajustable knock of the koni yellow in your eg.
I search before and what I know is that it is difficult to reach that knock connection w/ the gsr strut bar. Anyone can confirm that?
thanks

definetely
I'm using the one for EK's cuz it mounts directly to the strut mount bolts,
instead over lower on the frame.

you have to move your wiring harness down alil on one side tho(which is why they made the EG one different i'm guessing).

good bar though, solid, rigid, one piece design,
simple, and looks good.

oh and it wont cover up your adjustment bolt at all.

that looks like a jointed bar, IE it has a pivot in it.

any bar with a pivot point, no matter how expensive, or shiny, or cool looking,
or if it has a "mugen/cusco/tein/spoon/etc" label on it, is going to be LESS effective than a $50 solid piece bar

I believe carbing is the only bar I have seen that is a single piece that connects to the firewall also, and doesnt run over the top of your strut mounts.
it looks heavy as **** though, and actually does have clearance problems with some strut mount devices like the tein edfc.

again, I recommend the neuspeed EK bar.

yes it is verrryy nice,
looks great too.

BUT its not perfect, I wouldn't use it personally, because it doesn't mount directly to the
strut mount bolts. IMO thats the best place for a strut bar..
now theres probably very little difference actually, especially no noticeable difference..
but i'm just picky like that.

also by mounting up higher, it runs directly over the strut mounts,
so if you have extended mounts like I do, this could be a problem.

which is kinda wierd cuz benen is the one who made my extended mounts, haha.

hello all:

thanks all for the reply.

Tad- is that pivots a welded connection? what exactly "one piece" mean? I thought as long as there's no joint, movable connection .... is a one piece.... or did I miss something in the pic?

yeah, no joint or moveable connection,

I suppose 1piece is a bad description cuz there are multiple piece bars that function as 1piece(like typeR style bars)

yeah that carbing bar is cool.
looks kinda heavy 2me tho.. but who knows.

and yeah well.. the typeR style is technically 11pieces.. 3 pieces held together with bolts nuts and washers, heh.

but it functions as one piece.. thats what matters.
