I've been looking at the Cusco. I know about the ground clearance issues, but I'm using Eibach Pro-kits which are something like an inch drop in the front. What I've really been wondering was if any smaller companies made a better product. I think I remember seeing a triangulated one from somewhere. I was searching for the Top Speed stuff, but I can't seem to find it. Thanks in advance for the help.

 

Anyone? I searched a little bit, but didn't find much. Any help is deeply appreciated.

 

i have no idea, but i wanna see pics of that 240Z

 

I have installed the Cusco bar..... with no clearance issues on a car thats only an inch or so off the ground... .

I can get that cusco bar for about $75 bucks and shipping if you want one..very easy to install..

I have the Cusco. I had no clearance issues, never really scraped anything. However mines bent to **** from hitting a curb, and then being smacked into by ice, all my fault however. I have a brand new one in my room awaiting spring where there is no ice to cause things to ruin it.

 

im thinking of getting one for my crx as well...has anyone notice any difference in handling with it installed?

 

It mostly helps with steering, made it a lot easier to turn my wheel.

 

Does anyone know of any other companies that maybe make more than just the one piece bar. I thought I remember seeing one a while back, but I can't seem to find it. Thanks for the input on the Cusco bar. I'm seriously think about it, but I want to make sure there isn't better stuff for the money out there on the market.
Thanks for everything so far.

 

Oh, and that pic isn't my 240. Its a wide body racing car from Japan. Awesome car though. Mine is gun metal, yet on jack stands. The tranny needs to go back in. Hopefully I will have it running again. It has twice the power of my little Honda. Makes it a little more exciting to drive around. I'll get some pics up someday though.

 

yeah, one of these days i'm going to pick up an early 80s 280zx, i've wanted one for a long time.

 

thats glad to hear...wonder how its easier to turn...any links on where to order one...for the cheap 75$ of course....metal bars aren't worth 150-200 to me...yet.

 

Do you mean this Pro-1? It's an ASpec product. And I think it will only fit EG & DCs.http://www.aspecperformance.com/features/feature2.html


EF options include:
-Cusco
-JIC Magic (same as their EG/DC version, which looks alot like the Cusco's EG/DC bar)

It's said that EG/DC ones will fit an EF. Which means you could use the EG/DC application from Cusco, Spoon, JIC,...

Smaller companies that make them would be Matrix, Tenzo, OBX, and other generics like that. But I don't think it's better, too many pieces. HTH
