Tein EDFC + FSTB fitment issues?

Okay, so word is that the Tein EDFC has some fitment issues with the strut bars out there. Tein says the EDFC wont work with any strut bar but their own, which is BS cause others have overcome this problem in other makes/models. Course, Tein does not make a strut bar for the Maxima as of yet, so whats a guy to do? I know that Cattman's will work with it, but he no longer sells them, and I be damned if I can find anyone willing to sell me one.

There are two links below of a couple of FSTB that I found online. Anyone know if these will work with the EDFC?

I think the whole thing is over clearance or something. I know it has something to do with the motors of the EDFC. Anybody out there have the EDFC and a FSTB? Id be forever grateful for some help.

the otto racing one should not have any clearance issues...i have one and it angles up pretty high to clear mostly anything...so i wouldnt think there is a problem fitting it with the motors of the EDFC (although i only have th bar not the EDFC). Hope that helps ...........somewhat

SE-R had the same problem. To this day, I do not believe he has one. I actually have his old FSTB.

I have both the tien SS and the EDFC and I never even thought about have problem with the front strut tower bar. Thanks for bringing this issue up. Now I can buy accordingly.

Now the only problem is, which one will work. I know there has to be someone on here who has the EDFC and a FSTB...
