Another B13 rear STB - Page 13

vladha · Mar 11th, 2003, 06:25 AM

Hey, Dave. I was just joking about the install being difficult for me... mainly because of severe sleep deprivation.

One of the reasons everyone has jumped on this is because of the design and the ease of install.

But, most likely, I'll still look at the install pics. I've been known to be a pretty big monkey and break things

Thanks again,
Mark

For those in the Chicago area who want to see the prototype RSTB in person,
I'm planning on going to the Chicago Nissan meet on Saturday, 3/15/03, and will bring it along.

"how is this going to work. i already paid but was like number 180 on the list. do i have to wait or is it first pay first get"

It depends on how many orders actually come in. As of yesterday, only about half of the original list had placed orders on the Active Tuning website.
All of the orders will be produced in one batch. When they are ready to ship, I'm going to try to get as many as possible out at the same time.
If they all don't go out at the same time, the shipping order will probably be a combination of the original list and how soon the order was placed on the website. Either way there shouldn't be more than a couple days difference of when they ship out.

I sent my order on the Mar 12 so that it gets there in time. Thanks so much Josh for hooking us Sentra boyz up with this awesome strut tower bar! The bar looks like such high quality. Thanks again dude! Great job!

Not to sound like an ass, but what is the point of a rear strut tower brace when the car already has complete bracing from side to side. Whats already there acts as a brace therefore making the one that is being added nothing but extra weight. I realize that any added stiffness is great but there is no way that adding a brace basically on top of another brace can work that great. If There is proof that it makes that big of a diff then I'm all for it. but as it goes, it seems like a waste of money

That flimsy piece of metal that runs across the back isn't mounted to the top of the strut towers. Needless to say, it does very little to keep the car's rear geometry rigid. People have used RSTB's on B13's before because they work. It's just that nobody produces them anymore. Hence why Josh gauged interest to decide if manufacturing some would be worth it. I was going to build my own, but Josh's is cheap enough that I'm not going to spend the time to.

I think Cusco might still make them, but the prices I've seen were $150 - $180.

Here's one, $162.95:

Patiently waiting,

Travis ( I ordered two them)
