new to the forum... great info all around. i have an 02 pro5 with the following mods:
- NGK plugs, magnecor wires, megan racing springs, vibrant rear sway bar, B&M shifter, brembo drilled rotors, 17" SSW rims, Toyo proxes rubber, vibrant intake, OBX header, vibrant cat-back exhaust, limo black tint.
i race autocross in STS class, and have had a hell of a time finding anyone who carries (or has in stock) a rear upper strut bar. any suggestions as to where i can find such a beast? i've seen em often, but everyone says they are always on 'backorder'. guhh, frustrating...
thanks!

Just make it. Or a have race fab shop make it. If you take it to a machine shop, they should be able to measure the distance between the struts, and make rings to go on the top of the strut towers. Strut bars must be all one piece to be of any use. The bolt together kits you get at the speed shops are all looks and are absolutely useless.
