It's the front, just follow the link to the store and purchase through the store, it will calculate shipping and what not.



It also has a full description of the product, but I will post it here:



By tying in the upper suspension points at the shock towers, the strength and rigidity of the chassis increases while the overall handling performance of the vehicle improves. Ractive Type-8 Strut Bars are constructed from tubular 6061 T-6 aircraft aluminum, which has a high stiffness to weight ratio. Tighter fitting tolerances are possible due to a more compact design, which allows greater clearances from engine components.

hows this if it doesnt have a name brand dont buy it if it has a name brand that

A: is known to makes junk

B: has never been heard of before by neone but the seller



THEN DONT BUY IT

what about ractive then?

I posted ALL of the info regarding the Ractive one in a previous post as well as the fact that you could follow the link in the original post for details. I'll repost them for you:





I have no idea what the ebay one is like, I have no way of commenting on it as I have never seen or installed it. I have this exact brace on my car, it is a good product, it is easy to install. I don't know what else you want.





I don't really know what more info you want then what I have already given you, if that is the way you feel so be it.

scott i was kidding around with you buddy ...



no i was just wondering how ractive is...cause most of the ractive sutff i have seen/own is ****

I have the eBay one. It was shipped quickly and works just fine.



I've purchased a number of items from the nopistons store and have been very happy.



The choice is yours, they end up coming out at about the same price.

While they may perform similarly, I think the Ractive one is a better product. The mounting plates are much more robust and have some real thickness. The generic eBay ones have thinner plates that are just stamped. The welding on the Ractive bar for the uprights is much better too.



Just my opinion, but I've dealt with both units.

Well there you go, there is someone that has seen both.



Thanks for the input attomica.

I got about 9 of these in today, so if you wanted one last time and missed out, order from the store, they are on sale $44.99



Thanks

I recently got front and rear tower braces and my dad bought some mugen braces for his accord and the build quality is way on his but they do they same thing, But my car handels way better than his and he has full tein coilover's and mugen sways rims good tires (proxes) and im on stock rims stock blown suspension and kumho's so you be the judge

im the 1st one to have bought one.....ITS GOOD ****!



and no its not the ebay one

Yea I got a bunch of bites last time, but no one actually ordered, oh well sold the 2, now I just need to sell this round.

I cannot tell from the pics, does the main tube have fixed ends, or does it have TRE/heim joints for lateral length adjustments? I'm not talking about the spherical eye ends where it connects to the mounts, I'm talking about just inboard of that.

The bar is threaded on both ends. It's adjustable in length, if that makes sense.

Yup, exactly what I needed to know.

Cool! I still have a couple left, only polished.

ok this may be https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683621.gif but i was wondering if any of u can get the torque/strut bar. i no a guy who made one that is nice and all i have heard is good things about them. i heard the torque brace is incredible.

by the way i do have a ractive front strut bar with some custom mounts because the bar was off my friends car that had only a 3 bolt mount so i fabricated a new plate and welded and drilled it all out to fit

it is a little heavier than normal but it does work

From Ractive?
