b16_704

i did a lot of research already but does anyone knows any traction bars that are affordable price and made with good materials? i really want the full-race one but danm it's to expensive for me, i also found the avid, jim-fab, but i know there still probably more out there...i really just need it b/c i bought a downpipe for my b16 in my ef so that i'll have enough room for it.

Well, if those are your criteria, then the stock one the EF came equipped with from the factory fits the bill perfectly. If you are actually worried about a solid mount for said radius rods, then OPM and others makes a $100-130 spherical bearing to replace the stock rubber bushing. Alternately, for mild power situations, the $11 Energy Suspension poly bushings work four times better than stockers.

You may have found Full-Rice, Avid, and JimFab, but none of those guys make radius rods for the EF. You're confusing the EF with the ED, I think - different cars, the whole front suspension is different. I have a JimFab - while not as expensive as the Full-Rice unit it is twice the quality. However, clearance for downpipe and oil drain line is a LOT less than with my old Place crossmember which hung really low.
