strut bar
NEW MEMBER BUT ALWAYS LOVED ROTARY ENGINES. MY FIRST CAR WAS A 1982 GS RX7 WHEN I WAS 16 YRS OLD. MY QUESTION TO YOU, Where can I purchase a strut bar? Mazdatrix and cpracing's bars look like if they welded 2-3 rods together and painted them. I dont like this look. Even the racing beat strut bar is not so good looking. Is there any other manufactures that sellS a strut bar similar to the 3rd gens. I like the good looking strut bars. I'm planning to dress up my engine compartment. HELP.

Sorry about the crappy pics, but here it is:
It's kinda 3rd gen-ish. I decided I did notice a difference on the track for the positive, so they're worth the money IMO.

It looks great on my GSL-SE and my '83 GS.
But the '84-85 Rx-7 have a ridge on the strut tower that will require you to make shims so the bar mount surface sits flat.

That'll work just fine. Not much work involved either... About 5 mins.
