Jesus. They're proud of that thing. Lol

They started overpricing it for probabyl a couple of months now.

Wait, you're not really going to get that are you?

The rear strut bar but they show images of the front?

I was thinking about it. It's from strut to strut.

Someone I knew back then had the J's Racing installed on his ex-FG2 (dont mind the NOS):

From researching, the Ek C-Pillar bar can fit the FG/FA rear top struts.

 

[Nix]

I got this one from Corsport.

It stopped the creaking in my rear window and trunk areas.

Interesting. I can see that helping considerably with body roll. Not to mention, much less intrusive than the strut bar.

I was thinking of the C-pillar brace, but more body flex will occur at the rear upper strut section.

Get both!

I want a red one that will match my Tanabe front strut bar (useless bar).

 

[Dar-Dar]

Get both!

You know, Boomba made a thread on the 8th about making a brand new part. I suggested a 4 point brace from the c-pillar and the upper rear struts, but no one cared about it. That's because the members there wanted control arms (no performance upgrade whatsoever) and that became the majority. :facepalm:

Lol. $118 for the Ultra Racing EK C-Pillar bar....

I just received my sway bar and rear shocks. These bushings that came with the sway bar are pretty soft (75 durometer). I'll be using the bushings from work (90 durometer).
