    I got mine from Franklin Joseph (sales@udm-motorsport.com) for $107 plus shipping. He used to sell them on ebay.

      Been a long time since a group buy on these, there may be enough interest to start one up. ?

          I can't say exactly from personal experience how much difference it makes by itself as I put my bar on the first day I bought my car. I believe it tightens things up a bit, but I am not sure how much of that you "feel". I think it's just one small part of the bigger picture, it all just adds up. In other words, JUST putting the bar on will not drastically improve your handling, but when used in conjunction with other suspension/handling mods, it will definitely do it's part to enhance the total effect.

                That's high. I think the last group buy we paid about $100/ea.

                  Yeah, less than 100 would rock

                    $100 shipped? I'd be down for a gb but I don't like waiting for those to pan out and it seems like everyone has one already, plus it's only $29 more to have one in a couple of days.

                      the only way you can get it for 100 is thru a gb, like the last one. the cost went up cause of the euro, i got mine three years ago for 90 shipped from evosport.

                        So somebody post up a group buy feeler already, just see what happens. Also, hit up e30tech. Surely there are enough "new" guys around to support another gb.

                        EDIT: see Group Buy section ;)

                          I've dealt with Franklin Joseph before too. He lives in my area and can usually get good deals since he has contacts with parts suppliers.
