Default Strut Bars fitting

Im wondering if the J's racing strut bar and Spoon sports strut bar fit with having a fujita CAI, without rubbing against the intake....


Will these strut bars fit? or rub?


please respond if you look at this thread i need to know asap. The guys are waiting a response and i dont want to buy the strut bar if its going to hit intake and not fit.

thanks s2ki

Technically it shouldn't matter if it hits/rubs or not. They don't do anything but looks.

I don't know if this helps, but my Spoon just barely touches the stock intake. I don't know if the Fujita is higher or lower.

Technically it will matter...since if your bar does contact the mental intake tube...it will eventually rub a hole through it. So its of concern to know if or if it doesn't rub.

To the OP, the Spoon strut bar sits too low to run an after market intake safely, you can cure the problem by possible putting something between the intake tube and strut bar...but I've seen threads that have stated it still rubbed a hole through the metal intake tube.

I know for sure a Cusco strut bar will clear and not rub, I believe the J's is a similar design and therefore it will also be alright.
