Can't wait to see the results. I think that the TSX could easily prove a worthy competitor to the M3 with some good tuning.

cool find. i wouldn't hold my breathe for the front strut, I don't see it being very different than any of the others out.

I would really like to know what they did to the car though, it didn't even look like Skunk2 was making anything except that strut and an exhaust. Unless they used CompTech parts Good thing I got a sub to SCC, should be a fun article, and give me some more suspension tuning to do.

I know what you mean but comptech and spoon cost way too much. skunk2 parts are usually cheaper too. But I am sure that they are working on developing one since under applications for strut bars, there is TSX listed. Just not ready yet!!!
I also can't wait for their cams!!!

its been listed for 2-3 months, so it should be done by now. There's a Neuspeed front strut, only $90, so I picked up one of those

I'm sure they can make this happen.. but how much would this cost if a consumer wanted to compete with an m3.. with all the money they prolly gunna spend on this car, why not just get an M3... also, will most of this stuff be custom? or will it be able to be sold to the consumer?

Uhh no. Except for the development costs, I don't think the price would come close to exceeding that of an M3. An M3 is more than double the price of a Navi TSX.

i don't think they're suggesting getting the TSX instead of the m3, they're still totally different beasts, 4door vs. 2door, rwd vs. fwd, 0-60. But as an article is should be fun, and a good marketing tool for Skunk2. I would imagine that most of the parts are inhouse s2 builds, but will be available to consumers eventually.
