DOES Anybody have a Neuspeed frnt strut tower bar installed on a CRX or CIVIC?

CAN you post a pic here? or email me a pic Ryancausey@hotmail.com

I need to look at some clearance issues and this bar looks like it sits up a little bit, which is what I need.


thanks

isnt your bar made to be flipped the opposite way? where it curves up. do that and your bar will clear fine

negative, its completely flat, cant be installed any other way. its like a cheap $30 dollar ebay one. i'm tossing it in the garbage. i think the neuspeed will be fine. also I like the fact that they are just one piece, no hinges. I think you lose stiffness with hinges and ****. HA HA i said "stiffness". thanks for the help guys

this is off topic but if someone can do me a HUGE favor that would be awesome. can someone with a tape meassure meassure the distance from SHOCK tower bolt to shock tower bolt....i bought a tenzo R strut bar from a seller and it didnt fit. i was off about 1/2 inch..but from my past exp i always have problems with his products like he buys defects...so if anyone can meassure that it would be awesome before i go out adn buy another strut bar....my car was in a front end wreck before under a truck so just wondering it if moved those towers too.

you dont want it. I hacked it up with a dremel trying to make the oil breather fit. its a cheap as **** one anyways. do yourself a favor and buy a good 1. trust me these cheap ones dont do ****. like I said I like the ones that dont have hinges. just seems less likely to flex to me.
