*Groupbuy #2 for Cusco front strut bars and lower arm bars*

Hi guys,

You guys requested a 2nd Groupbuy for the Cusco front strutbar and lower arm bar. So here it is. Pricing will be the same as the previous groupbuy.

Pricing is as follows
Front strut bar is $165.00 shipped
Lower arm bar is $90.00 shipped

Here is the signup list. I'll keep the buy open until May 9th. I will need some sort of payment or deposit by May 12th.

1. WiLd~CL~TYPS-@SS
2. Y2K3CL-S
3. Smitty-paid in full
4. Andre (paid deposit)
5. Ray
6. Notstr8
7.
8.


Here is a list for those that might want a lower arm bar.

1. WiLd~CL~TYPS-@SS
2. ch1276-paid in full
3. GOT PSI?
4. Smitty-paid in full
5. mc1129
6. Ray
7. SWT
8 Notstr8
9. Andre (paid deposit)
The last groupbuy took 2 months from the day that I placed the order til the day that I had the product in my hands. So please keep that timeframe in mind. I would need a 50% deposit to hold the slot for interested buyers. I can take a cashier's check/money order or paypal. If you use paypal please add the 3% paypal fee.

Here is the info:

paypal payments should be sent to tyfuun@hotmail.com
please contact me if you are paying via cashier's check/money order.

thanks
arnold

Thanks Rolie,

I can actually take as many orders as possible as long as the minimum number is met. I set an end date so it can cut the wait time down. I figure the sooner we place the order the sooner we get the product.

Arnold - put me down for the Front Strut.
Could somebody tell me what the Lower Arm is for? Is it something I would need if I'm using Comptech Sways and (probably) TEIN SS's? Is it for extreme handling/motor-xing? Any input appreciated. tks

just installed mine today, easiest install ever. I took it for a test drive and the steering definately feels tighter, it's kinda hard to explain, but it feels more responsive. It even makes it harder to squeal the tires around a corner. I can't wait to get sways.

I am down for both, but only if I can send you 2 checks.. One for the deposit that you can cash now and the other when the braces come in and are shipped out...

If you can handle that, then mark me down.

It fits perfectly with the Accord V6-

For $90 it a great mod, with a rear tie bar & front upper strut bar, I don't feel any slop when I turn the wheel.

Sorry, cforez, I meant does the strut tower bar fit on the AV6. I was worried our hood wouldn't shut.

Both bars will fit the av6 w/out any problems. They are both designed to fit the av6.

I've received everyone's pm's and emails give me a few days to reply. I've got a lot on my plate right now. Sold the wrx so I've been getting everything ready for the buyer who is flying in on Monday. I'm also finalizing the deal on another car that I'm in the midst of purchasing. I'll keep everyone in the loop and send payment info asap. I'll be having everyone send the payments directly to me this time. Sending the payments to turboevo ended up being a hassle because I had to go there each time a check came in.

thanks,
arnold

would it be ok if i get only the front strut bar? i heard that if sometimes if you buy only one of the bars, it'll increase either under or oversteer depending on your car. i only want to get the front one b/c the rear one is too low and i'm afraid of snagging things on it and scrapping. my car is lowered and in davis, there are a lot of places that aren't lowered car friendly as much as i'd like it to be.

Just get the upper, no big deal. The struts dont affect over and under steer as much as sways do!!! When I added the front upper bar, the only thing I noticed was a tighter, quicker steering response. Over and under steer seemed the same.
