sucks for all those richie strut bar customers who bought it just because it was cheap.

although, imo, the richie strut bar > circuit sports strut bar (cosmetically).

Yah, the Richie bar does look better. But for the price difference, I can settle for this...lol.

Powdercoated black...hm...I'd think it would look good.

my concern: does it fit with all plenum mods?

It looks like a one piece construction, so it may actually work better than the Richie bar.

For some reason when I first saw the pic, I was convinced that it said "CIRCUS SPORTS."

If it can clear the Crawford plenum, I'm in.

Guess we will have to ask on my350z if it would fit with all plenum mods.

Looks like a pretty tight fit actually...In the picture it looks like it is touching the cover, i bet it will only fit the 5/16 spacer. Nothing bigger...

Hero, whats up with the new picture..? I didnt even know it was you until i looked at the name

I doubt it rubs if it barely fits over the engine cover...the arc touches, but very little not enough to cause damage. This one lays lower than the arc or richie....

Atleast it looks that way...

Yeah, it looks like it lays lower than the arc or richie bars...does look like it is a tight fit though.
