Anybody have expierence with these? Are they any good? It looks to be made out of the same metal as any other traction bar design. Thanks for your responses

 

i got a etd bar a few years ago.it looks like there making some cheaper street version now.i would recomend a bar thats made for racing.as long as it doesnt hang to low,it will be fine on the street.

 

yea i know about the etd bar, i was just wondering if there is any difference in the ebay version. it looks to be the same design as all the other ones. I woulndnt trust a manifold or turbo from them though.

 

honestly,i would make one before i bought something i didn't trust.i think it would be very dangerous if it were to break.

 

yea that definately wouldnt be good.

 

they have no front mount

 

I don't need the front mount

 

If you are not doing any racing with it, I'll say go for it. But then, if you are not doing any racing in your EF, why waste money on one.

 

its pretty much a track car.

 

if its a track car why waste money on cheap ebay shyt. invest money in something that will last longer. i.e BRAND NAME traction bars

 

yea the only reason i wanted them was for my 4'' downpipe, other than that i could careless about traction bars.

 

that dosnt meen you should degrade your crossmember to ebay garbage... that meens you should at least get a name brand crossmember replacement.

 

theres nothing wrong with ebay ones... few friends have them... and had welds looked over and were fine....

 

Thats what I would do...and reinforce it...

 

Thanks guys for your comments.

 

Have the ETD one on my 4dr, no problems at all.

 

Do you see what's wrong here? That's why you don't buy ebay parts.

 

just modify your stock one like I did...

 

word of advice. never buy a traction bar that doesnt have looped end pieces. buy full race and be done with it. etd is a piece of crap imo.

lol at that pic.

 

i personally have one on my crx and its holdin up pretty well..wit a 4" downpipe, you'll have more than enough room for it...one thing i will say is that the ebay bar does not come wit the lil bracket that etd offers..this bracket mounts the bar to one of the original holes that your stock traction bar use to be..this would help out alot as the movement of the wheels would put a lot of pressure on the mounting point. i actually welded the traction bar itself onto the chasis partially and i plan on reinforcing the bar in the future..im broke so thats wat i did...i do plan on buyin a full race though..it looks sexy and strong...^_-

 

full race all the wayyyy
