Default Strut tower bar advice

Yes this is a real question ..

It seems that the stock GSR front strut tower bar does not clear the GC upper mounts. Does any1 have any recommendations for a good functional bar which will clear an AEM and the GC mounts??

Not a functional bar, but running none will clear the mounts

We haven't run mine since October last year (5 races ago) and I couldn't possibly tell you a positive/negative difference.

when i put on the skunk2 intake manifold on my gsr, the 4pt neuspeed bar no longer would fit.

i dont notice much difference either

but, the itr strut bar should fit on your car

Yea .. hehe. Actually I have always been very jelous of those HUGE E30 bars. I wonder what the rule ***** would say about a DOM tube welded to the two front strut towers?
