hehe.. Yeah, it's called the RFT method... really freaking tight!
I've had my strut tower bar on an off probably 5 or 6 times already and as Robby mentioned, it only takes a couple of minutes, so it's not difficult at all. Plus, how often are you expecting to have to remove the engine cover? Not too often I'd expect.

It's scratched but it looks like it can come off. I tried to polish it out but it didnt come off at all. Maybe you might know how to take it off.
Are you coming to the INFAMOUS G and Z meet this saturday?

Yeah, right now I'm planning to be there... but I've got some friends going to Salt Lake for the weekend, so I may go there instead. I should know tomorrow night for sure.
FYI... I believe that the bar is made out of stainless steel, so that mean it is going to be pretty hard to polish. What are you used to try and polish it? I've got a pneumatic rotary polisher that I use.

Thanks for the feedback, I noticed that the car at high speeds i.e. anything over 120kmh handles very wobbly, you need to think about the weight of the car and the way it pulls on corners. I'm getting the Hotchkis ARBs, but now I'm thinking I also need this strut. I might get it soon.
P.S. Is that a Mazda in your avatar?

Not sure if the bar will do much, if anything, for high speed stability, but it definitely makes the car feel more solid over rough road and bumps and also improves the steering feel, particularly on turn-in.
It's funny you say that, because I have actually owned a couple of Mazda RX7 convertibles... but this avatar is actually a pic of my Porsche S2 Convertible.
