APR Front Strut Tower Bars for 2001 Civic!

This APR tower bar is new part for our 2001 Civic. It constructed with 6061 billet Aluminum solid bar. The design look very stiff and high performance to me. The good thing is, it fit with any brand of intakes and ALSO AEM and Injen CAI. APR is well know for race wings design, so this might be a great tower bar to stiff your chassis. It sales for $135 + $15 shipping at groupbuycenter. Check it out and tell me what you guys think.

Will it work with a CAI??? doesn't look like it. I kinda like the looks of the Neuspeed ones, I just gotta find a good price on one of those!

From my experiience, take the money you were going to spend on strut bars and put it towards a good set of springs and shocks. Since I got my Pro Kit and Konis I think I will take my front and rear strut bars off and let the suspension work independently like it's supposed to. I really believe you get that much more out of good springs and shocks. The price of a front and rear bar will more than pay for a set of springs.

its adjustable, so it can still be only so stiff, the neuspeed bar is not adjustable and uses a more supportive 4-bolt mount, so that still holds my vote as the stiffest front bar for the 01... the fact that you can get it in black for under $100 and that it clears both intakes only adds to that

too bad cusco dont make one for us... hehe
