    Well... anything fits with mods if thats what you are asking. I dont know how much work is required to get it to work. Whats wrong with getting one for the 86-89?

    Why not just buy Justin's strut bars? The pics I've seen look great, and no complaints so far. IIRC the price was reasonable, he's not raping people on price like some posts I've seen lately.

    Justin's beautiful front strut bar.



    Now the rear strut bar.



    Just a thought.

    Peace.

    No.

    But there's always EFI conversion.

    Or you can fashion a custom strut bar against the firewall in some ghetto fashion.

    my rear:



    for any rear, you can get the 90-93 and cut and reweld the bracket. Its extremely easy if you have a welder and a hack saw.(i used a plasma cutter though =P)

    I was thinking about trying somthing this summer for the carb front, but well see how it goes and if i can get myself a welder.

    if your looking for ones made for our cars, good luck, dc sports use to make them, not anymore and there hard to come by, a guy on 3geez here by the name of justin makes some for our cars, other then that im pretty sure your gonna have to find some that kinda fit and adjust the brackets or make your very own,

    dont forget about ebay, they always got stuff

    not usually.
    seriously, if you want one that bad, just get yourself a welder, and just do what i did for the back and what justin does for the fronts. Its not that hard. Either that or have a shop fab you one up, which will be an arm and a leg, and then maybe your left nut too.

    Its called DIY, your not going to find one very easily over the net.

    what i ment was that ebay always has strut bars and i didnt spectificly mean our cars just that if you were looking for somthig that might work, try ebay and you may find something that wont take as much fab work as building your own from scratch, sorry i should have been more clear
