I haven't been on these boards in a while so did they just give up on making these?

 

I heard something about them coming out with it soon maybe .
but don't quote me.

 

I was wondering about this, too. Did Spohn just decide not to make them?

 

Come now, do you have any idea how hard it is to design and engineer a bar? They have to do R&D for like 6 months, then test it for another 6 months, followed by modifications and revisions for another 6 months. Because when you buy a Spohn STB, you arent getting just any bar, you are getting the best bar in the whole damn world. No other companies bar will begin to compare with this one. Sure it'll cost 50% more than any other bar out there, but this one will be worth it. "Why?" you ask. Because it has Spohn's name on it, and the amount of R&D out into it is simply unmatched.

OK, that was all in jest. I love Spohn products and have them on my. I'm sure if/when they come out with one, I will buy it.

 

Before you go on another rant, Mr. Spohn has been telling us to expect a strut tower brace since early 2004, as well as tubular a-arms, "LSX" motor swap parts and other steering/suspension goods. So far he has delivered on everything except for the STB.

Have a look for yourself (fifth post down):

I haven't heard any news on it within the past few months or so, and I figured he just decided not to make one at all.

For what it's worth, I would gladly buy a Spohn-designed STB over Edelbrock's offerings.

 

I need a stb anyone know who makes this one or is it a one off.

 

does any one know of one tfat will fit under a stealth ram manifold

 

Spdfrk1990,

I believe I remember hearing that the STB you posted was a custom fabricated, one-of-a-kind STB. It couldn't be too hard to make, though, if you're good with metal and welding.

 

Last time I talked to him about this(not recently either), he said it would be awhile before we saw it due to other offerings in the pipeline.

His design at the time would consist of brackets that mount directly to the strut tower retaining bolts(3) and then crossover the engine bay. This to me is the best way of building a bar because it will actually stiffent the struts/tower directly at the center of the issue.

Also seems to be the biggest pia to design and he doesnt want to drill holes in his inner fender/strut towers any more than I do. Imagine trying to make one that will fit the majority of cars here with the varying modifications and let alone the differing alignment specs which make the locating braket(bolts) move and still be able to make it a secure strengthening device.

If he makes them this way, he can count me in for 2 possibly 3 if it clears on a TTA :-)

Like I said, this was some time ago and I'm praying he still ends up making them this way.

later

That one in the pic looks like a bmr and some peices added to it with the bmr letters welded in.

 

Nevermind the bmr looks different on the ends.
