Default Need Pic of Mugen Rear Upper Strut Tower Bar - did a search

Can someone find a pic of an Integra with a Mugen rear upper strut tower bar installed? I found some old threads talking about the bar but none of them had working pictures. If you can explain the installation process I would appreciate your help.

If you have any tegs with the front Mugen bars too post that as well. I don't really need that example but I would not mind seeing more pics. Thanks guys!

hehe - I'm itching to pic up two (front/rear) this spring for frolicking around corners at high speed. Yeah, from what I've heard they don't do miracles but the resale on used Mugen stuff is insane. If I ever want to sell them in the future I can get most of my money back.

First three courtesy of EPCONZALEZ:








I'm not sure if this last pic is a Mugen bar or not.

Thanks IN VTEC. Very nice pictures. But the second and third files are BMP pics so they don't show up. And that last pic is not a rear Mugen Bar, rather it's just part of the tubular steel roll cage.

That one smells funny. A Mugen bar with long bolts connecting the bar and the mounting points??? (notice how EP's bar is all welded in places...) I dunno, I don't think even the gen1 bars looked like that. Anyone?

Thanks. Another q: does the 1st gen bolt up in 4 places per side? (eg, strut tower bar mounting points (2) AND shock tower mounting points (2)?) Anyone have a pic of gen1 Mugen bar NOT installed on a car?

Actually, yes it is. It is the older 8 points, imho the better one. It actually attaches onto the struts bolts where it should

I've got a dumb question - What are the two orange things on the driver side? Are they just covers for the clutch and brake resivors (my spelling sucks)? Just curious?

Really? It looks round in the pic. Must be the angle.

Yes...it's a "sock" that fits over the reservoirs to soak up any spills during high speed cornering (does this even happen?).

It's the first gen bar... does ANYONE know where I might get one... I've been looking for quite some time...

Zeus - who doesn't know why Mugen screwed with a really good design...
