thats why i didn't post prices. I haven't made one dime from selling them...i don't even know what the interest is yet so i posted it to see. Should their be a large interest? i'd be more then happy to support this site by becoming a sponsor. To this day i haven't sold one thing on this site.
I do see your point though stylis and agree that if you make money off this site..put money back.
just an added point on the braces...they are alluminum

Just another example of NOT FULLY READING the post. Hmm. No prices, yet gets hemmed up for selling something, when it was just about to see if there is any interest.

I always though sub-frame braces were steel.
What type / grade / hardness of alluminum are you using?
:?:

The strut bars come with double internal hallow wall struture for stronger support. The actual bar is make of alumimum with high polish. Constructed by air craft 6061 grade aluminum for rigidity and strength.
brace= aircraft grade 6061/6063 vacuumed out aluminum with hallow double wall design

you know what i can't figure out?
why are people putting 'performance' parts on a box with 100 hp anyway?
is it for when you go ripping through a turn at 15 miles/hour trying like hell to beat that '97 escort to the taco bell, your box doesn't fall over?
who are you kidding? just do cool stuff like stereo, interior mods, fish tanks and monitors. the boxes are cool, but performance mods are a lost cause...let's be real.
save the performance mods for us tC owners

fyi. to think the box can't handle an autox course or even a road course is silly. Is it fast? not at all. Will it hold exit speeds...yes. If you get it to handle even better will those exit speeds increase? yes. have you taken a look at the scion xB's curb weight to the TC's? The box is basically a tall crx with more torque.
maybe you should take some high speed driving courses and learn some?
try 2 hpde (high performance driver education courses) at http://www.nasaproracing.com/ and call me in the morning because your dilusional this holiday season.
oh..and the TC is still a dog when it comes to performance. This was the last honda i sold. No forced induction...allmotor
save as

maybe some of us dont like stereos and fishtanks and that kinda crap....remember when people said a fwd car would never be practical, or that a honda civic would never have 200 whp.....oh wait maybe you dont remember your probably some 16 year old punl ___ kid who thinks what he has is the best and everything elese sucks.....i mean it takes one to know one, i may be a 23 year old punk ___ kid, but obviously i learned from the ___ beatings i got as a kid, so anyways after my tangent, these cars have major potential for auto x, wait till im done, itll suprise some people, check back in 30 days

Sure the xB isn't going to stomp any EVO VIIIs or STis, or even a Corvette, BUT never underestimate some of the drivers on this Forum.
With the right amount of skills, the xB, when set up properly, can outhandle some of the cars on the street, and even though it won't win many drags, I've been known to pass others on corners and on/offramps that have decreasing radiuses and off camber turns.
