Stillen RSB Knock-Offs Now Available

I was on eBay earlier and noticed these:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2449484661

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...category=40925

Claims to be of the same design and material made from the Stillen RSB.

Probably a good deal for those that don't like the look of the Addco and Cattman/Progress, but don't want to pay the price of the Stillen one. Maybe this is a sign of a slightly larger selection of generic RSBs coming down the pipe like FSTBs already have.

Peace.

I corresponded with the guy last week about these, I shot him an email today to see if he would be interested in putting together a group deal on these. If he responds I'll post it here.

It's listed at $129 right now?

Personally I think the Cattman/Progress deal for $105 shipped right now is unbeatable!

Yup, I wouldn't touch it at $209, but at say 130-150, I'd grab one.

Unless it's cheaper than the Progress/Cattman one, I would never get it. It's not any better, and may even be worse since it's a generic knockoff...

Guess what? I found the manufacturer's website for the RSB and they not only make RSB for our cars, but also catback exhaust, intake, coil-over and many more. Go check out: www.topspeedauto.com

i bought one of these and just got it yesterday.
The quality looks flawless. The brackets look identical. the only thing it doesn't come with is the ebrake relocation hardware. you can ask any question you like!!

Cool, did the bar come with installation instructions? I'm not sure if its something I have to worry about or not, since the things looks identical to Stillen. Oh, what did you end up doing for the ebrake relocation?

Thanks

yes it came with the instructions. They look identical to the stillen ones.
I haven't installed it yet bit the stillen instuctions had a parts list so i bought the bolts it said and it needs some spacers too which i haven't found yet but at the worst i think a stack of washers would work
