i actually got the heads up from a 370z forum. Those guys love them and have dynos that show added hp. HPS's website also claims a 6hp increase. Who knows but I am happy with both performance and looks.
Strut bar add a little stiffness to the front by attaching the strut towers. I like it better than the GTSPEC one

its a little louder but not that noticeable. MPG, havent really had a chance to study as they have been on for an hour now with 2 miles on books.
strut bar does LOOK like it will rub on engine cover but even with high revs and spirited driving, the engine does not move enough to hit it

^ whs the bar does not hit, there have been many tests by users here on both bars. bat the SB looks nice, the CS SB is on my list for sure... How come there is no logo on it like soundmike had? also how much and from where did you buy it?

Im not sure why there is no logo but i have read that a couple other members did not have the logo either. I purchased from frsport, a Circuit Sports authorized dealer. $155 shipped
Looks great! 
Seems FRSport is selling several "branded" variations of the bar. Some actually have the "Circuit Sports" badge on it. I forgot who mentioned it, but apparently you can remove the badge. I never got around to doing so on mine, but it's good to know
