Built by Okuyama sold under the name CARBING and RIGID.
The Mugen rear bar is a copy of this bar. The front bar has firewall connection point for better stability. It's a Rally and Gymkhana parts based company that also sells Rollcages, lower arm bars, body strengthening parts, and lots of other stuff. Sorry but the site is Japanese only so you need to use a translator.

sweet!

yshi - who wonders why dee changed his screen name

 

yoshi.. I got tired of people calling me dreal and Dee is actually my nickname! I want to get the Carbing front tower bar but that means I'll have to re-arrange my fuel setup since the FPR is located at the firewall mounting spot..

Me likes this tower bar! Very Very functional and the RHD drivers can use the built-in master cylinder brace!

 

Dreal:
soly to hear peeps dunno j00r real nickname is Dee

how much are these bars?

yshi - who wants, actually NEEDS, a MC brace!

 

COOL

 

those look very nice indeed!

 

Price? And is the front bar going to fit well in a LHD car rather than the RHD which is what this one is obviously designed for?

 

Yeah I saw these braces first from Rigid last yr from my supplier that was pushing Rigid then. But I didn't know Okuyama was OEM of this bar. I guess its up to the person if they want silver or yellow coloured ones from Rigid. I haven't seen the Carbing ones though.

I was thinking about this setup awhile back becuase the bar is in great area to tie down remote res. from Penseke Racing setup. Well this was what I wanted if I would kept my car hehe.

 

what is the price that they are going for?

 

I know Dee's REAL name

Still trying to figure out how in the hell to mount my Okuyama radiator heat shield plate thingy...

Send me IM and I'll give you quote on Rigid or Okuyuma about the only difference is colours and names and one will be abit slightly higher then the other.

Kengs I do too. He's from around here or use to be.

 

good stuff

 

Good stuff. As i remember a friend of mine brought one back from Japan and it doesn't fit cuz the MC booster is on the way.

 

Damn those are nice bars... guess the MC would get in the way tho. Dammit.

Where can I get one of these in the US, if possible? I need a rear strut bar and those prices look very good.

 

Rigid bar!

 

Dammit why doesn't a US company make tha tbar.l

Those Japan prices just show how much we are getting raped when buying jdm parts.

 

i think benen is coming out w/ one.

 

.....I think the question is whether or not the bars fit in the lhd dc2. Anyone?

 

i just want the rear bar!

 

Get an OMP, basically the same thing. In terms of no-pivot points and made of same material as roll cages. Solid!

 

WICKED!!!!!!!

 

Look at the yello Rigid bar. It is sans MC brace. The brace is an add-on item.
