Your right, it's a huge mistake that will make it lose customers like me.
I have a 5/16 spacer on order, so I guess its Richie for me.

I think if I have time this weekend then me and aHero will find out for you. If I have time, because I will need to swap the bar to his car and see if it works with his coilover.

I'd think this new bar would have installation issues with all modded g's... whoever designed this bar didn't model all the possible outcome or potential upgrades that owners have put into their car.... it may be cheap but at the cost of preventing other mods from improving the cars breathing or suspension characteristics....

You gain some and you loose some, CS posted that their R&D was base on OEM Spec & Set up. There are few car's OEM strut bar need to be replace when the owner wants to upgrade the suspension.
