Cool.I'm getting some small decals for my mirrors that will say "Objects in mirror are losing" That'll be good for a laugh.Yeah I hear Chris and Pat are good people to deal with.I'll get the strut bar from them hear in the next 2-3 weeks.Should increase the handling greatly.Especially when the one I want is the triangulated one. :twisted:

Heres the CP racing piece







Looks like it might be stronger then a Racing Beat one but I'm not sure on it.

Heres the RB one

I have seen both that CP bar and the RB bar on a first and second gen rx7 before and I would take the CP Racing bar hands down.

The RB one is like cast aluminum or something... not strong at all. You can bend the bar inbetween the struts by putting some weight on it... imagine how stiff that is while your car is twisting.

I helped replace a regular RB strut bar on a fc with a CP bar. The RB bar was wedged on the car... we had to bend it in the middle and then pretty much pry up under the end plates so we could get it off and not strip any of the bolts! Then the CP bar just slipped on with no problems...

CP Racing = :bigok:
