Rep Power: 403

apparently when i called http://www.ptuning.com to order a front sway bar they said that they don't have any because the bar doesn't clear the cat on ex models so they are redesigning it... i was mad at first because they didn't think about this, they probly tested the bars on LX models but i remembered i had a aftermarket high flow cat and i don't think it would clear it.

the guy said it will take about 2 - 3 weeks. and it is going to be about 150, but the other bars that they are selling are going on a special sale for 135.

you can put your email on that item when it comes out and they will notify you.

Thanks for the information! Damn, so I have the defective one? I hope it doesn't affect me too much though. Right now it's perfect, but I wonder if I'll have problems when I install my EX exhaust and EX header and cat replacement from Random Technologies... I wish they did a recall on this thing. Hmm...

Ya, I have the front bar....They changed the color too...My rear is that shitty green color and my front is charcoal.

Yeah, they used to be turquoise. Both of mine are charcoal now, but I think the front one is still the older design that supposedly doesn't fit with the EX cat, right?

I just installed the progress front on my EX and it bangs against the cat. Its not too bad but I can here some rattles which sucks. Plus I couldnt get the bar centered. I think I might have to get my exhaust bent out of the way, I wonder if progress would exchange the bar for me when the new redesigned one comes out.

The only one of mine that knocks is the rear and only when it's cold. The Progress Rep that I talked to said that he wasn't surprised. In fact, when I told him that it was knocking in the rear the first thing he asked was if it was only when it's first started up and cold.

and i just got my x-brace installed but it bangs against my HP header... and if i got the progress front, it would hit the exact same place, which would make me need to cut off the end of the header and just weld it on after i install the front sway so nothing will hit.
