full race traction bars?
 
i found these traction bars for my crx at fullrace.com and they look like they replace the front crossmember, does anyone know? and if so does anyone have any experiences with them, will they be worth the $450? i NEED good traction i already have new struts, drag springs, clutchmaster stage 4, clutchmaster flywheel, and limited slip in an attempt to get good traction, but its not enough so im getting drag radials and thinking about these traction bars?????

If you know how to fabricate the parts only costs $80

I'm making mine for 40 50 bucks tops CANADIAN. I could have made it cheaper if i shopped around for Bearing Rod Ends, but I didn't.

I'm taking over this task I guess. I will buy everything next week and start welding. I will take pictures. I already have the materials list done and where to buy everything.

I will get a how too up soon. Mine are near done. just need to put my motor back in and place the motor mount and get my suspesion back on to size the raius arms. I found that It's easier to trial and error fit the to measure and cut to excact final sizes.
