Some people have been asking about pics for the full-race bar etc.. and i finally whipped out the camera, so for those that have been asking, heres to you!



and here is a top view

 

Impressive. Can you give your experiences with it so far?? Like driveabiliy,wheel hop eliminated??? etc.....

 

unfortunately i havent gone to the track so i cant attest to is 0-60ft improvements, but i would say the wheel hop is pretty much completley eliminated, just depends on the way i launch it etc,,, having good tires helps though.

You cant just slap these bars on though, i had to hack off the stock radiator mounts, and i had to go get an alignment right away, i wouldnt not recommend trying to drive with these on without an alignment.

other than that so far so good! I bought them for clearance issues and they have resolved that so im happy with just that feature!

 

Your rad is mounted with.... ZAP STRAPS!? lol

nice install. I hope they have little extensions welded on them for the rad though..

 

I thought the Full Race bars had tabs welded on for either half or full radiators to be mounted?

 

they do...

actually you gotta tell them what rad your running

 

I ordered their trac-bar and just recieved it a few minutes ago. They said that there are tabs for both the stock and EG radiator on the bar. I took a few pics of my own and I posted them on here for you guys to look at. I need to find some instructions on how to install this thing. I wanna make sure that I put the right washers in the right place.

Here is what all came in the package:

-big *** bar with 4 circular tabs for rad mounts
-2 radius rods
-2 adapters that can double as tuning forks
-8 brass washers
-8 silver washers
-4 nuts
-4 bolts
-2 long bolts
-2 brass washers

they do have tabs for the radiator, but its too tall and wont clear the hood, so you can either use the tabs and lean the radiator, or u can zip tie it like i did, ive ran the zip ties for almost 2 months no without any problems.

that's really awesome, I was gonna ask what if you hit a bump that thing will go sailing out the bottom of the engine bay

but if i've learned anything working on these old things... what works, works and don't question it

 

zip ties are the ****, hands down,

it looks a little ghetto but it works, the guy at fullrace told me they were making a custom radiator for a crx, that would work with there bars that were half size and it would clear the hood, said it would be avalible after sema, he might of been blowing smoke up my *** though!!!

 

that would be nice if they did

This is probably dumb, but do you just get a regular front end alignment, or do they actually adjust these bars?

 

Thanx alot man with the pics, you just helped me and other people buy putting up this pics

 

Looks good.

J/W is that a rex or HB?

Yes, i went in told them that i have a camber kit, and that i have a set of traction bars that are caster adjustable, they looked at me like they were scared, they wanted to know what to set them at and i said i just want both wheels to be perfectly centered, and they took it from there, you might have to shop around to find a shop that will do it for you.


for the other guy this is a crx

 

Im almost 100% sure the z10 traction bars have the tabs welded on.

so do the full race bars,

the z10 bars dont have as much ground clearance as the full race bars, and the z10 bars were designed by the guy that designed the full race bars! there is a 20 page thread about it somewhere!

 

nice

 

Some one should a write up on how to install these

 

if don't mine me asking, how much did this set you back?

 

its so simple, i could write it up but i didnt take pics of the whole process,

heck they didnt even send instructions thats how simple it is,

I will probably do a write up later

mine was 415 shipped.

 

yummy.

hmmm, looks nice, but those zip ties kinda worry me. plastic does eventually break, its just a matter of time.

I'd try using some coat hanger wire down there instead (or even a couple of really big hoseclamps). it will still be just as ghetto , but stronger than plastic zip ties.
