dunno if anyone said this but i hate that they try to make money off shipping on ebay.

 

One of those cheap bars saved my life in my accident. It absorbed so much of the force that I would have been smashed otherwise. I'll send pics to the disbelievers.

i got an r1 sb to match my red fd, and i also had the cheap one off ebay. there is no diffrence in the handling to me, but im not a profesional driver. however the r1 sb seems to be a stronger metal (or just thicker) and less likely to flex. the $25 sb is definatly worth $25.

 

double post.

they sent me the wrong one... doh. the end pieces are the wrong type (4 holes and large diameter instead of 3 and small). now i have to fab some new ones at work sometime.... unless anyone has some extra laying around

 

you can't return it for the correct one?

 

i'm trying to get ahold of them, hopefully i can, but stupid as i am, i threw out the shipping box so i'll have to go repack it and all that crap. depending on the cost of shipping it back, it might just be cheaper to buy a new one!

 

You could probably drill new holes...such a pain in the *** that you got the wrong one though. It will be cheaper to send it back.

 

well, i'm just gonna wait and see what the guy says... it was their fault though, so who knows. i have access to a REALLY good shop at work and i might be able to get it done as a home job... its not just drilling new holes though, the land (part that sits on-top of the strut tower) is about 2 inches TOO big in diameter... i looked into it more and they must have sent me a 2nd gen one by mistake.

 

I have had one for about three years, it has worked fine for me for three years...

 

You got lucky.. I ordered a 7 dollar swaybar from that same guy and he sent me the wrong one! He wouldn't exchange it nor would he give me the 24 dollar refund.

 

I bought one several months back.. $25 bucks shipped, ya can't beat it.

 

Don't buy from EVO VECTOR. I ordered from another vendor spent $1 extra buck and got the right bar. Having just saved $314 on a new R1 bar, what should I get next?

 

i got the same bar... i just wanted the nuts... my friend got the same one for his jetta... i think theres someone online selling the same strut bar to everyone...

 

Here are a few pictures of my megan racing strut bar I got off ebay. Seems like a solid piece for 25 bucks shipped.

 

I like the one from Megan Racing -

Hey AW, how does that color compare to the VR?

 

well I havne't put it next to a VR car but I think the red is slightly different. They offer the bar in 3 other colors I believe, grey, polished, and blue.

 

Just received my used R1 bar from eBay seller rhdjapan. Got it used for $150 plus $40 shipping from Japan. It only took 3 days to get to my door from the end of the auction, and it's in great shape. He's got another one on auction right now. I know you can also get used ones, sometimes in black or red, from JT-imports, also in Japan, for around $195.

 

I got a used Corksport bar for $20...I was pretty happy with that.

 

i think i bought one of these for $35 2 year's ago...... no fitment issues! its perfect! look:
