nuespeed tie bar, problem and question

Hey guys, just got my neuspeed the other day tried to put it on last night. It seems like the neuspeed is about a 1/4" away from fitting onto the bolt studs. It seemed like it was too much to just be able to jack the car up and loosen the other nut and make it slide on there. Anybody else have this problem. Or is this about a normal gap? What should I do to fix??????
I'm going to try and do it again tomorrow just wanted some heads up on it before I dove back into it, and started trying to bend the bar over a big nitrogen tank again. hehe

just jack up the car on one side. Do this and it will go on fine, it should only take 15min tops to put the bar on. Good luck

Hey injen, how far off was yours???
It just doesnt look like the strut tower studs will move enough to get it in there.

just loosen the bolts and jack up one side it will go one just with a little effort. mine was off by like a 1/4 inch or so. and hey atleast its not a 5th gen prelude, we had to jack the car up have one person pry from the valve cover to bend the bar, have a second person stand on the one end to push it down, and a third person had to whack it on with a mallet.
