I have the front and rear Cusco bars, a ST rear sway, Tein kit, camber plates, adjustable pan-hard bar, and poly bushings. I don't have the poly bushings installed just yet and I wasn't lucky enough to be able to buy the bump steer correction kit. tongue.gif It really handles great, the Teins are very firm, but controlled. I only went to one Auto X this year and the car felt great. Turn in was sharp and easy to control, but I think I was too low because it did have a very slight snap oversteer at some points. (I was not anywhere near as low as I am in the pictures lol) The bushings are going in this summer. I think you'll be very happy with the results. The only thing I wish I had, even for street driving is the bump steer correction kit. Crappy roads around here will just about yank the wheel out of your hands turning onto a bumpy a$$ street.

I was thinking the same thing last night... Without modification to the plates, he sure can't. I would take the plates over the bar if you ask me, and if you DO need to sell the bar, I have got MEGA dibs.

i dont know yet if it works or not. i was playing with them and it just may work. i put them on backwards(meaning the left plate on the right and right on the left) and it seems it could work, the only thing about it is the clearance on between the hood and the bar. lets see what happens.

What you guys think?

I dont believe you can run the plates backwards like that due to the indents on the bottom of the plates that are made to clear the welds on the stock strut mount. You would need to modify them.

Also when I ran a cusco bar w/o camber plates it would just touch the bottom of the hood, that was in a CRX tho...
