I have recently switch from a winged trunk to an rs trunk and was wondering how to install the RS Torsion Bars. Also if someone has the part number of the RS pieces I would appreciate it. Thanks

What part numbers are you after?

 

+1 need to know this information as well. He needs the part number for the torsion bars i think the bars that keep the trunk held up when open?

 

What color are the torsion bars you have now? It seems like the GSR/MR/RS all have the same torsion bars in common, the only number differences Im showing is between these --


LEFT
GREEN PAINTING - MR991365
NO PAINTING - MR573003

RIGHT
YELLOW PAINTING - MR991366
RED PAINTING - MR573004

Im coming up with these same options even when I 'filter' the catalog w/ RS, MR or GSR.

 

They have colors? they should be just flat gray/metal. How much for both a left and right peice?

 

I put all those numbers in the link below so you can see pricing. Im sure these only have a little mark of color on them.

Mine are white (same color as my car) as far as I can tell. I am not worried about that as its not something you can see. I will check that link out now. Thanks

I believe the RS has a different one (that has less pressure) for lack of the spoiler. I am not positive on this though. The stock(GSR) torsion bars are too much for the trunk lid without the spoiler.

 

Yep it's gotta be different because when i open my trunk w/ no wing it just flings the trunk up.

 

Here ya go, I have a vin for an RS and it gives these numbers. The other decklids do have different numbers. My apologies, I was scratching my head on this one.

MR573003
MR573004

There ya go!

 

Thanks!!!!

 

yes the rs defenietly have different. since i got my wing the trunk is feels much heavyer. Specially when you close it!

 

Now does anyone have install instructions? Thanks

 

anybody have any tips on getting these bad boys put back in? I know when they came out, they did with some force...

 

anyone have a pic of them installed, i took them out a long time ago to put a carbon fiber trunk on and now i sold it and have my stock trunk on put need to put these back on so it opens
