pics of carbing bars installed !!
okay so about 2 weeks ago i just realized that carbing makes bars for the rsx and ep3. of course i'm gonna think hmmmm do they fit our cars. well i found some pics of members on clubrsx that had them installed. so check it out
here's the rear strut bar


the rear tie bar

and the 6pt subframe bar

a newer pic with many other bars ...

i found the rear tie bar for only 70 bucks so i'm gonna order it later this week when i get my check. also here's the thread i found the pics in full of info on the bars if your curious

well a good majority of tie bars for the rsx works on our car and for 70 bucks i'm gonna take the chance, in a week i will know for sure. and about the subframe it hangs really low i read about 3/4 lower than neuspeed xbrace. so if your car is super slammed then the carbing subframe bar isn't a good choice

Rears will fit, the underbrace may or may not depending on the subframe. I would print out that pic and crawl under your car to see if it looks the same. I know some of the points will match up but maybe not all.

yea i was lookin at that but it hangs really low and ephatch members are complaining about how their scraping their bar over everything plus i'm thinkin that the 2 parts that connect around the cat wont fit. so i'm gonna end up sticking with my x brace. in the next few days i'm gonna order the tie bar and put it on my car and for 70 bucks thats a steal.

good to hear that will fit also, im gonna stick with my xbrace because the carbing bar hangs way too low and i'd be paranoid of catching it on something.
