Front Strut Bar Clearance w/ Seibon TS Hood

Hey guys,
I'm trying to figure out what strut bars will clear this hood because i read a thread saying that there feed bar didn't clear a hood similar to this one. I have IR performance engine mounts along with the bonzai oil pan brace as well.

Let me know if you have something similar and a strut bar that clears.

On stock mounts (and banzai oil pan brace) my Cusco type D strut bar works just fine with this hood. Not sure about aftermarket mounts though.

I don't think motor mounts and banzai brace haves anything to do with hood clearance.

unless your engine is raised so high that you can't use popular struts like cusco .. the r1 strut etcetc

can you fit a r1 strut ? if you can. you have no problem fitting that hood. I know cause I have the same setup. irp mounts banzai brace .. I have the rz strut but it's the same as r1. and I have that hood. I fitz

That's good to know. I ended up buying a r1 adjustable strut bar so I should be good. Thanks for the feedback.
