i was wondering what kind of rear strut tower bars you guys are using on your civics and CRXs. I have a CRX and though the hatch could use some stiffening.

 

i am debating over the jic magic or spoon bars.....but are very good quality

 

ebay bars. seriously. they do the job just fine. i'll take pics of the bars tomorrow if you want to see what they look like. bought upper front, upper rear, and lower rear for $100 shipped.

 

do you have to cut anything to install the rear one?

 

It was a tight fit but i did not have to cut anything.

 

i have matrix front and rear upper strut bars. the front one fits great but you will have to cut a little bit of plastic in the rear to get it to fit. but it is really worth it. if you have good tires, lowered, and strut bars it will handle great.

 

ummmmm dear whom it may concern... well in my crx.. i just have jap knock off's... but metal is metal.... they work just as well... but if you got the cash.. you should try out the cusco brand... i have a friend that has them... and they are stiff as hell.. *^_^*

 

Spoon

 

hmm jic magic makes bars for the EF?...i asked b4 and they said no....hmmm where u gonna get them at then

 

I've got a Skunk2 rear bar... I had to do a little bit of cutting, but it wasn't bad....

OBX front and rear upper strut tower bars. installed in 15 minutes (i took my time) absolutely NO cutting, nice polished look, and i got em both for 60 bucks!!! nice stiff feel when cornering and steering feels more exact.

 

I've got a Neuspeed. Pretty expensive, probably not worth the $$, but wanted to match my front bar, for some silly reason.

Caution: does a good deal of damage to the practicality of your crx - makes it much harder to lug big things around in your hatch, if you still use it that way.

 

oh yeah..as far as storage space for my hatch..virtually unchanged with the rear bar there. it fits nicely with the back seat up..i imagine if i need to haul something big i'd have to do something, but i can take it back out in under 5 minutes

 

Neuspeed. I have no rear interior so no need to cut. The only ones I would consider are the Neuspeed and Mugen.

Much stronger than 99% of the bars out there. No pivot points either like most of the junk on the market.

 

All the way around, front rear and rear upper.
More than adequate.
