Ebay, just don't buy a cheap one 94-97 accord strut bar, they make ones with circle (3 post) mounts they're just not cheap

OH..........yeah ARP makes a brace that hits all three holes. Its extremely beefy though and one of the more expensive bars out there. Take a look at NRG's too. ( the flat one )

yeah i was gonna say, i can see that i have a center mount in the back of the engine bay...

so ARP and NRG, huh?

i'm sure these will be pretty pricey, you think the extra stability is worth it tho?


can anyone give me a url? my 3 second google search gave me other stuff

I've been wondering about that intake as well as the tri mount. I'd rather that than a V2.

Sixfifty, have you looked into any under braces as well?

those whale dick intakes actualy fit if you get rid of some wires and shit. Also, Im selling my ARP yes...its A>>R>>P im building tig welding a tri mount so no need for this. THe ARP unit gave me great rigity after i installed it. Take a turn without it and with it.........big difference. pm me for price.

Both units can run 100+ or minus depending on were you buy em.

For underbraces, talk to mr heeltoe in the group buy forum, that's where I got my lower strut brace



You can already see the chips taken out of it, just from me driving it home, it's WAY more scraped up now, but I love it, tightens up turning like you wouldn't believe.

yea i dont think they make one, believe me i looked. i wanted a Carbring one but of course no application. if you want something a little bit more original then i guess you can go with a Cusco, but beware there are alot of E-bay knockoffs.

U take credit for all the things that he did when he had the car, but talk about them like you did things that were already there when you "bought the car" I just don't buy it. You have said way too many things that are coincidence for me, sorry. I don't care who you are, but you sure as hell act like him.

well, alot of the modifications done to the vehicle weren't as solid as id liked, and alot were taken off. Mind you i purcshased the car about 5 months ago so alot has been done to it since. Im working on an accord in the shop now actualy. The driver ran over a cone and damaged the front tie rods.
