help! my buddy and i were installing my KYB AGX/ Eibach Prokits this past weekend, and while we were doing the rears, he accidentally sheared off one (of two) bolts holding the strut assembly to the deck part where the speakers go. the FSM calls this part the strut mounting bracket, and the parts catalog calls it part # 55322-70T00. i was wondering what effects this will have on my car. the rest of the installation was successful, and the new springs are pushing against the strut tower, and the unsheared bolt is fastened securely. does somone have this part laying around? i guess ill ask that stuff in the WTB section. thanks guys. -jack

well... been there done that... I just leave it as is - will replace it when I go to the AGX/RS-R race springs route...

So far, nothing noticable has happened - I haven't died yet. Thought it's more like knocking on wood

I can do you one better...I have a full set (4) of Tein camber plates for S13/S14 for sale...used, but in perfect condition. These would replace your rears, and give you front camber ajustability.

E-mail me if interested: [email protected] (use subject: camber plates)

If you can't handle those, I've got an OE upper mount you can get for a twen spot.
