Get one off of eBay for like $20 shipped and copy the design to make a stronger one. :P

I made my own Rear Lower, and two Pillar bars for my chassis. Pillar bars are loadable, Lower tie bar is solid. My chasiis is hella stiff. When jacking on one corner of the car it basically lifts level, nt like the classic one tire on the ground, 1 tire off.

There are quite a few threads on Honda-Tech about them.

i made solid front and rear strut tower bars on my 85' 300ZX, and a sweet adjustable front strut tower bar for my 1G eclipse. both cars have improved about 50% from stock stiffness. a huge difference. :y
