Default Strut bars on a DX w/ d16y7

What strut bars can you use on this car? I have looked at a few auctions on ebay and they all say except dx model. Damnit. Anyone know what we can use? Its a 00 DX btw. thanks.

you can use the strut bar on a dx, but the way the intake comes out the tube will rub up against the strut bar or vice versa. my friend has a dx and he has a short ram and a strut bar, but now theirs a gouge mark on the intake where the strut bar and intake touch.

most intake manifolds have the intake come out the side while the intake manifold on a dx has the intake come out from the top.

The Neuspeed bar will fit just fine, I think it's one of the few that clear the stock airbox or aftermarket intake. I had one until yesterday when I put my AEM V2 on. my old one is for sale if you want I suppose.

its for my friends car that he just got and his dad made him get the warranty. So he cant do too much of a change incase anything goes wrong. That way we can throw it back to stock form.

get a neuspeed it will clear the stock airbox, you dont need to mod your intake manifold or anything.
