I've been looking around for a set of strut bars, and came across these on Mazdatrix. So I searched on here to get a picture of one installed, but it seems like the pictures/links have expired. So if anyone has a picture or has one and could take some pictures, it would be appreciated.

 

 

Looks good, did you have to cut anything?

 

I had to cut into the strut towers

 

It looks like it just bolts in...

 

Then you did it wrong, this bar is designed to bolt in using factory holes. I didn't have to cut anything to install mine.

 

 

Looks good.

 

It looks like a knock off of the Mazdaspeed rear...If so then it should just bolt right through the factory holes...Also there is a good pic of one installed over the carpet in this thread: https://www.rx7club.com/2nd-generation-non-technical-pictures-198/my-rare-condition-s5-turbo-ii-805608/ ....8th pic, 1st post...Hope that helps...GL

 

No cutting, just bolt and go.

 

hmm...i kinda like this bar.

 

Thanks for all the help, Im going to order the front and rear bars today or tomorrow.

 

You installed the hardware backwards, the button head allen's should be visible not the nuts.

 

oops. I was drinking during the install. Does it really matter anyhow?

 

$50 ebay 3 piece strut brace!

The mounts are orange, painting them blue was necessary!

 

Old thread, but I like the blue. I should paint my front and rears. How did you get your speaker covers on? Mine didn't fit and I didnt want to try and trim them and break them :/

 

got the same one on ebay!! front and rear for $100. not too bad.

 

nice the blue makes it look like a cusco strubar haha im gonn ahave to do that too so it matches my front cusco bar =]


oh and get a new horn button lol i hate that RS type crap lol had the same one then upgraded to boss hub, NRG 2.0 QR, NRG wheel and mazdaseep button =]

 

yeah, I don't like my wheel either! It came with a re amemiya insert but it's a bitch to get on. 320mm is way too small. I want a 350mm nardi, momo, mazda fd wheel. I HATE THE S4 WHEEL.
