Sweet I just got the Tokico Blues installed today. Also installed the Neuspeed front bar. Went to install my Stiffy torque damper and found out the dude who I bought it from on this forum forgot to send the bolt and mounting bracket.. Well one of them.. So I need him to either send me the other mount or make me the other mount.
We shall see on whats next for the whip. I'ma start saving for some flat black 16" slipstreams.
if your using your stock top mounts from your suspension, just to let you know the ingalls stiffy will not work with the neuspeed bar unless your using the top mounts like tein provides with their coilovers that has the extended and longer screw prongs. Our stock ones are too short, and if your getting a thinner bolt to screw it in with the ingalls mounting bracket and neuspeed bar, it is not recommended, there have been stories of it popping out and the ingalls stiffy becomes less effective due to its weakness of holding three objects at once. You gotta go with either or. if Drag racing go with the stiffy or making sharp corners stay with the neuspeed bar. good luck
Actually the bracket for the stiffy and the neuspeed bar work perfectly together I got both of them on and I got 5 complete turns down on the screw which is plenty because it hit the recommended 31-33ft lb tq.
This has been discussed many times before on multiple threads.
are you sure cause when i bought it brand new with my neuspeed bar, it was impossible so i ended up returning it because of the less thread bite from the nut. the previous owner must of drilled the inner socket holes of the neuspeed bar thinner on the drivers side. Its also been discussed on other threads as well that this wont work. If it did work im sure it did not bite all of the threads than it would normally, thats what worried me the most.
Look and tell me how did it work? That thread is too small to get you get 5 complete turns with the stock bolts
By the way how did you put on the bracket if the sender forgot to send you the mounting bracket?perhaps how did you put it on without the mounting bracket to begin with?

Thats the thing the bracket on the strut top is the one he sent me. The one that mounts to the engine is the one he forgot so as of right now I have the bracket on the strut and the bar in the box. Until I can find the engine bracket or have one custom made it's just chillin on there.
From the looks of the pics mine probably has more threads visible than that. I'll show you when we get together for the shoot.
see you there man. hit me up if you have any question. that goes for anyone too.
update: i should recieve my car this wednesday from the body shop, if i forgot to tell anyone it was keyed all over my car right when i got it back. its been in the shop for about a week now for repairment and other things.

Autocross: Because Life is more fun on three wheels......
"I know Solo only comes one minute at a time, but what an intense, non-stop, fast-forward car control exercise minute it is. Sure, the velocity is higher in road racing, but inside the car it is slow-motion in comparison. In Solo, the turns come like machine-gun rounds. "
