The dealership for the shift ****. The rear tower bar was not available in the US. But jdmscg is selling the rear tower bar.

08U92-ST7-200 ****, SHIFT (SIMULATED CARBON FIBER)

Not that rare as people put it, seeing that I've owned a few probably close to 10. I used to bring them in until the exchange rate got screwed up.




I've seen quite a bit within the last few months for sale. I offer rear panel cutting with OEM template and trim.

How does the rear bar affect handling? Will it make a stock ITR more tail happy? (especially in the wet)

It's more of a bling upgrade than anything else. You won't notice anything different before or after the install.

I have the Mugen solid 1 peice bar and it certianly tightens up the rear and promotes a bit of over steer. I took it off and couldn't stand the way the car felt anymore. Only downside to this bar is you have to cut the rear panels. With the OEM bar the mounts look very weak and flimsy IMO, so as Todd00 said, you probably wouldn't feel it.

ehhh...would much rather get a weighted shift ****. skunk2 is like $50, same price as the faux CF one and works too, not just for looks.

The faux CF shift **** was actually designed for the GSR. It was marketed as "inferior" to the leather w/red stitching OEM ITR **** and later the aluminum 00' ITR ****.

lol @ the OEM tape player. I actually had that in my 97 GSR. Dealership said I could have it for $40 when I bought the car new in 97, so I jumped on it. Don't think I ever used it, though.

the bar and **** will be for looks mainly. they place where i found the bar come with the two factory filler pieces but you would have to do a damn good cutting and glueing job to make it look clean

Gluing? There is no gluing involved with cutting the rear panels.

I've never seen those pre-cut filler pieces sold separately. Do you know where to find them?

Since where on the topic, Can any tell if these are real or fake? I have heard that some have the silver washers and some don't. On NWP for sale threads there are some w/silver washer and again some that don't. My brother would be getting them for me so I can't inspect them first hand.

They don't sell them precut nor do they sell the template/trim separately. However, I have the template and trim and can cut them for you.

When I bought my bar brand new, it came with silver lock washers. I have since removed them.
