how important is this? since I installed my DC Sport dp with cat delete I cannot reuse and if I try to use spacers the bar is too low to the ground, btw car has Tein S-Tech's installed.

 

how important is this I had to remove due to the DC Sport downpipe I installed with cat delete the bar could no long fit, when I use spacers the bar is droping to low any ideas?

 

It helps to tie the chassis up a little. I'm using an RMR replacement brace that takes the place of both of those bars and clears my 3" downpipe:

thanks bro

 

ordering one today... thanks

 

From what I gather, if you do drag racing, you DO NOT need to keep this item. But, for road courses and autox, those type of cornering activities that do push the car to its limits, it would be a good thing to keep.

I am pretty sure I will be pulling mine off of the car this weekend, and leaving it off for now.

Why not just add some Washers between the bar and the chassis.

 

If I don't "need" it, its only extra weight for me.

 

I Did that already, bent the bar... added washers...work for a while and rattling started again

 

Just get the rmr k brace

 

thats what i did. I used the helix 3 inch dp and just threw on some washers and i had some great clearance. I'm on swift/billstein set up for my evo 8 gsr.

I just ran over to my local hardware store and bought 10 washers total. 2x for each bolt and that was more than enough clearance.

I may look into an aftermarket replacement unit.

 

i have the same problem brotha....i just took mine off. i have the dc sports downpipe too and it hit with spings....just remove it. ,like said above weight loss!!
