Use the link in my SIG to ATS/USA.

Contact Yasu, he imports J's products to the US the ATS/USA site is his company.


Yasu IS the Man!

This is called the C-pillar bar and it helps to rigid the top part of the car. I felt a difference for street driving. IMO, I will try every bar to reinforce the chassis.

i bought mine from aj-racing. it makes the rear top more rigid. the only down side is the rear passengers are gonna hit the back of their heads all the time. i only felt a slight difference in handling. the back (to me) felt more rigid and stiff. my car was a little slushy in the rear now my rear swings under more control situations. i like it

How does it bolt in? Is it where the seat belts goes? If so can you still keep the seat belts in the back? TIA

edit: NM I checked out the site and found my answer. It seems that it's out of stock though.

I feel sorry for teh passengers that have to sit in the back. Their heads will be hitting the bar.

I'm sure that's a pretty good idea. The top of the chassis flexes quite a lot actually. Try slowly going up a driveway using an angled entrance, you'll hear/feel the rear top of the chassis flex a lot.

Any more info on the bar? That doesn't look like a G3 Integra from the pic.

No passengers should sit with the bar installed. That is unsafe!!!

About rearview visability... I find the bar to be very helpful in blocking some of the headlights of giant SUVs that normally blind me.

F*** Passengers!

And Sex is ALOT better in BED!

Or, I could figure out A BUNCH more comfortable cars to do it in...


Get a Full Cage for Rigidity or just order the bar for that added stiffness, "for performance NOT OFR HER!" Chicks are a dime a dozen, SPEED RULES...
