Ah, NO!!!!

You buying it?

Guess you can't read today. LOL

:rofl2:

Want so bad, however $2,410 seems way overpriced...

Meh...

My Fujimura titanium strut bar looks way better, weighs about the same, and cost way less.

Sh1t, my initial reaction was “$2500, meh, that’s not too bad”. You should see Audi sport prices for parts. :icon14:

this is a bargain

compared to:
$3,000 titanium bar from Zele
https://www.vividracing.com/zele-per...4-p-97928.html

$4,000 cf bar from Amuse
https://nextlevelperf.com/product/po...ssan-370z-z34/

i think the top secret STB was $1500

The X bar for a Viper was around 3 grand.

Well $2400 to shave 9 lbs at that location and look oem, IMO expensive but not nut job crazy...seen way worse even within the 370z bubble.

There are still a couple of Top Secret bars floating around. I followed one for a while lol. It fetches $4K or more these days :eek:

I recall reading it had fitment issues with USDM z’s but could not find out what was the issue

Wiggins ran the bar and it looked fine but i cant recall if he had to mod it

The TS bar, like the Fuji bar, was designed for RHD Z. The top two studs at the base of the front windshield are different for RHD vs LHD. But I don't think he modified the bar to get it to work.

If anyone thinks 2k+ is a good deal for a strut bar, please let me know. I will talk to a few people and make a limited run of titanium or CF strut bars.

11 years after the Z comes out and they finally get around to this? sad!

Reduce understeer when entering a corner and oversteer from turning to corner exit.

LMAO, you can buy a whole lot of SPL and other goodies to reduce oversteer and understeer more significantly than a tower bar. And for weight reduction, get a Antigravity battery. I know it looks bad *** though!!!:wtf2:

8 lb savings for $2.5k

insanity....i could go on a diet for a month and shed more weight

********. Not chance in hell this makes any kind of difference.

:iagree:

I'm not so sure. It makes your wallet so much lighter that it would change the balance of the car. That might make a difference :rofl2:

:iagree:

Consider I pay everything with quarters can pennies, this makes the my pockets mucho lighter.

I use aluminum cans, much lighter but bulkier.

I bought a brand new motorcycle one time with the change I saved. :rofl2:

...I kinda want one.

It doesn’t have the two extra bars that nismo Z’s have for rigidity

I assume the cf is strong enuff

Just do a carbon fiber wrap and stick a Nismo sticker on it!

This strut bar is not the best of deals for the weight savings. I would opted for the Top Secret strut bar over this one lol.

If southernzz seen this thread. He would be all over on this bar. :rofl2:

Finally I can make my 56% front weight distribution go down to 55.9% :rolleyes:

LMAO, I could save some weight by getting rid all the change in the console. Wait I don't have a console anymore!

Hell, I like it, but it’s not gonna sell very well if at all, wrong kinda market.

Might’ve sold better if it came out within a year of the 370z release since there’d be more enthusiasm and buzz around the car.

Sh1t like this would sell well to the gtr, r8, ttrs, Porsche type crowd for sure though, different market.

Cool piece but I don't know what build this would go into. It becomes something to worry about messing up and then that slight extra degree of being careful when torqueing it down.

Rather have the Fujimura to Top Secret unit. Those look like proper business engine bay/suspension hardware whereas this comes off more like a dress up part (and no lie it is nice though).
