how much would you pay for a rare/ hard to find tomei 3 peice strut bar? its green with white ends and bolts onto the firewall. its for an s13. it would have refinished plates on it but the bar doesnt have the tomei emblem. j/w how much it would go for...

!Zar! · 02-01-2007, 02:06 AM

They aren't that rare. They pop up time to time here.

I've seen them sell for $200.

Taniguchi_Is_#1 · 02-01-2007, 07:11 AM

^^ that's about right.

axiomatik · 02-01-2007, 12:33 PM

i wouldn't, I'd rather it just be functional than try to score 'cool' points for something that's 'rare'

*NemeGuero* · 02-01-2007, 12:49 PM

As much as I'd pay for the e-bay knock-off. Maybe 10% more..

Brian · 02-01-2007, 02:42 PM

$50

thats about it.

Dousan_PG · 02-01-2007, 03:55 PM

50 bucks
unless its made from titanium or some rare space metal from the planet zoras 3 light years away..

..its a strut tower bar
who the hell cares.

50 bucks. done. next!

burrcise · 02-01-2007, 03:55 PM

I got mine for a hundred and some change.

slow_sr20 · 02-01-2007, 04:18 PM

nrg makes a new trianglated strut bar, but still costs about 200$-check ebay, but either way not worth 200.00 imo

randyjordan · 02-01-2007, 04:20 PM

50 bux

anything above that is retarded

Islander240 · 02-01-2007, 04:23 PM

i bet you could get more than $50 though...there are always stupid people who will pay for shit, especially for a semi-rare strut bar.

Frosty_spl · 02-01-2007, 04:47 PM

F That!!!

10 Bucks

pignose4life · 02-01-2007, 04:54 PM

looks kinda crappy and weak, i think 10bucks is about right

Wei240 · 02-01-2007, 05:53 PM

don't believe the hype

50 sounds about right...

InspireMS · 02-01-2007, 07:36 PM

It really depends on how serious you really want the bar or how functional you want it to be. Honestly i would pay over 200 BUT only if it had shitloads of more improvements on a car. if it was a really little marginal difference, then $75 is max.

Islander240 · 02-01-2007, 10:56 PM

i just remembered a local shop was trying to sell one of these, i checked their website and theyre asking $300

1Via! · 02-01-2007, 11:10 PM

I have a Tomei. I think I paid 175 for it.

I can tell the difference between it and the normal ebay strut bar I paid $20 for.

I assumed I could sell it for more... who knows.

meh

hellion240sx · 02-03-2007, 04:33 PM
