    So given that the strut bars still aren't listed on Mugen of Japan's website, is it safe to assume that the EP needs none? The Integra receives them, but not the EP.

    That's kind of always been my philosophy, if Mugen doesn't make it, you don't need it (unless you want a turbo or something, you know what I mean).

    Are you referring to EP chasis alone or on any car?
    I'd argue that for some cars it's beneficial. EP, no idea yet.

    i am referring to any cars. Strut bars are a good way to start your suspension mods and though you wont see a major difference, they will help your turning.lowering springs with high spring rates will make the most difference. Then sway bars. You can feel it when turning. Your turning response improves. So... Turn the wheel and the car starts turning immediately. Before there was a sort of delay. That delay is chassis flex.

    What about LED Widnshield Squirters? Everybody needs those... How about this... If APC doesn't make it, you dont need it.

    The RSX-s and type-r rear upper strut tower bar will fit both the EP3 and EM2 chassis's, no fitment problem at all!!!
