you run the potential of cracking your windshield if you have no strut bar there. it can also potentially cause the frame of your car to warp. (i think)

The Greddy 03+ Honda Accord strut bar fits like a glove. If you decide to go with it order some Accord top hats which has the extra stud that is utilized by the bar. All that is needed to do after that is have a hole drilled where the new stud needs to sit. And voila you've got your EDFC compatible strut bar.

Greedy bar is like $120... Accord top hats/strut mounts are like $30~$40 for both of them... Adjusting the sensitivity of your suspension on the fly... priceless...

unfortunately... yes... you have to take out the shocks & springs again... then use the spring compressor again to remove the existing top hats and install the Accord top hats... seems like alot of work... but it could be done in a couple of hours...

You could always just use one bolt on the Greedy Strut bar... it's not like you're autocross racing the car everyday to actually feel the difference in the suspension... there's a board member that doesn't have a strut bar installed PERIOD...

TEIN SS, EDFC, and Greddy bar with TL top hats:



In order to use both mounting points of the bar, drill out the one hole, an replace the TL hats with the Accord hats (The Accord hats have a post that goes through the new hole).

It won;t get any more clear that this.
