I think cusco is one of the only manufactures for a rear strut bar forthe s14.Go to www.enjukuracing.com they sell them there.

Jic Magic makes one also as does Nismo. cusco and JIC are about the same in price. also check www.projectsilvia.com for them. Robert got me my bars in 2 days :D just in time for NOPI

Thanks for the help guys. I found one in Enjuku. It's the CUSCO AS rear strut bar for $135.99 still a little pricey for a strut bar. Does anyone has this on their car? Where could get the JIC ones?Still looking for a cheaper one.

yup thats the Cusco I have on mine. if the cuscos too pricey dont bother looking at the JIC about the same price but there arent many options for the S14 rear bars. check www.autoimaging.com for the JIC though.

Now I noticed that the nismo rear strut bar sits right under the windshield next the rear speakers. Is this where all the rear strut bars sit? Oh and when I ment next to the speakers, I ment inside the car, not in the trunk.

No, the cusco is located in the trunk.

yeah the Nismo sits ABOVE the rear deck I *THINK* the jic does as well but dont hold me too that. the Cusco sits below the rear deck.

So if the cusco sits under the deck and the nismo and jic sit on top would it be possible to have both mounted at the same time? What kind of effect would that have on the cars handling if it were possible.

The cusco rear os strut bar is mounted in the passage way from the driver shell to the trunk near the top of that passage in the s14, due to the way the cusco bar maintains its structure fitting another sturt bar with it is highly unlikly if not impossible. =)

Sorry pressures but it does work.
yes you can have both bars I've seen it done. just makes the rear stiff as crap :) I've got pictures somewhere of Russ's car with this set up.
