If it is the same as the 350Z ARC strut bar I have a friend who has it and I know it will at least fit with the Kinetix SSV... He also has a Seibon JS hood as well...
I worry about the CF hoods closing right as well with this bar as the CF hoods seem to be a little bit lower than the OEM hood...

please please PLEASE keep us updated!
it might fit the 5/16 spacer without cover, it seems that i`ll go with 350Z CF Engine Cover, but guys what about the CF Seibon TS Hood do you think it will fit with the Spacer and the ARC Strut Bar ?

lol, looking at the engine with and without cover it seems that the cover add neerly the same space added with the 5/16 spacer, and from the pic below you can see that the strut bar will fit more comfort with 350Z cover instead of G35 cover, remember the stock plenum is not stright !! its high to low design so there`s more chance for it to fit 
can anyone please help me with the CF hood question :/

ken, please do keep us informed especially on the function portion. the only thing i don't like about the vrt bar is that you can't use the stock airbox. this piece obviously doesn't have the problem.

I have recently made a couple revisions, one is that I re-configured the driver side mount so it will work with the stock air box and the APS TT kit.
Thanks......
