Does anyone know if any company(neuspeed/DC sports) has come out with an upper rear strut bar yet. It's seems like they are taking forever. I have a 2 door coupe and am only missing that and the front x-bar for my cars suspension,

Thanks,

Joe

Yep, exactly. Still haven't received mine yet, but hopefully it'll get here sooner or later. When it does I'll write up a DIY and a review.

I have a 2001 Civic LX Coupe and was researching the various options for the Upper Rear Strut Bar and found a few pictures that showed the RSX Rear Strut Bars in different locations:



The Neuspeed goes here:




The D3 Designs:




The Spoon Sport:




Since they are in different locations, I'm curious.
I hear the Spoon Sport fits, but is the Neuspeed in a more effective location or less?
Does the Neuspeed fit a Civic?
I dunno anything about the D3.
Which do you think would be most effective and why?

Thanks

Yeah, there's also a Mugen one that goes where the Neuspeed and D3 Designs ones go. I'm not sure which is more effective though? I'm sure that each one does a little bit to stiffen the chassis. We know that the Spoon Sports RSTB fits for sure. Bracing the shock towers in the back is probably the best way to go since that's what transmits the flex to the chassis. Plus the Integra Type R (DC5) has a RSTB similiar in design to the Spoon Sports RSTB. That's why I ordered the Spoon Sports RSTB myself.

The neuspeed one is more like a floor bar. Its there to keep the car square esp for hatchbacks like the SI/RSX. Remeber all the people with there sunroof popping out of the top of the car? Prevents that from happening in hatches.
