Strut Tower Bar - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have been looking around, and I found a few places with decent Strut Tower Bars, but they were all for civics, accords, and eclipses.  I found a few on ebay for my year (93 240sx) but they were like 25 bucks and they looked damn cheap.  Will certain front strut bars made for civics or accords work on a 240 or are they all different?

and if they are then where the hell can I find some nice ones for 100bucks or under?  I checked optauto but they were damn expensive.

PDM-Racing.com sells strut bars for $40 or so and are pretty good quality.  Most people who have them would not pay over $100 for one strut bar and PDM ones suit them just fine.  If you wanted something top of the line you would have to go with something like Cusco or JIC Magic(over $125 a piece).  Being more expensive they will also be of higher quality.  Those can be found at takakaira.com and other places.

As for asking if they were all the same, they are not.  All cars have different widths, etc. and one from an Accord or Civic would not fit well, if at all.

Also, for most of your parts searches, check the Zilvia.net links section.

Good luck!
