I've have gone through 2 bars, first one was from ppsonline.net, pretty cheap, like $79Cdn.

And my current JUNTOS one:

Also others have had a OBX-R one:

Which all fit fine, only thing you have to do is to relocated the knock reference sensor,... and that can easily be moved so it sits on the Brake resevoir on the back of the strut tower.

Cool, I know that it's said that you need to mount it in the original orientation otherwise you'll get bad performance.

Waiting for said pics.

Knock reference sensor moved from the X to the back
You can see the red wire loom going to it


And yeah I heard about keeping it pointing the same way,... but just keep it leveled, and you should be good.

you definatly do not want your knock sensor to be taking away the power. I did not know it had to be kept level and the same orientation. Thanks.
