Who makes a strut bar that doesn't block the oil cap?

you should join the nuespeed strut bar group buy. It comes no where near the oil cap and in fact you can even put another bar in the normal location in addition to the nuespeed bar. Its only 68 bucks (if your using paypal 65 otherwise). the post is in the announcements section or you can email me and i will give you the guys info. 75 people have signed up for the bar, but only 54 have paid, so c'mon join already

I don't have any problems getting my oil cap off and the strut bar goes right over top of it. There is about 2 inches of space under the bar to grab the oil cap and spin it off.

You can also see the neuspeed bar back by the firewall.

How does the neuspeed strut bar mount? I was thinking about getting one, and giving into the peer pressure.

Look at the picture of my engine bay I posted and you will see the black neuspeed bar back by the firewall.

I can see the picture, but I can't see how or where it mounts in the engine bay.

i have the pilot stb and the neuspeed. even with the pilot (and its bent lower on the A/S cause we have less hood clearance) i can still get the oil cap off.

and this is how the neuspeed bar mounts. thats the A-Arm Anchor bolt. i think the neuspeed bar actually does more since it ties the two anchor bolts together.

A bunch of us 2GNTers are in on this with the ASOG guys, but we need 17 more orders for it to go through. If you already have a bar, you can add this so you'll have two!
