Yeah, it fits fine. I know of one case where an Eclipse GTS guy (different intake plenum) had to put washers under the strut bar in order for it to clear. At worse, you'll have to do the same.
does the DC strut bar from the 3g eclipse fit the 8g V6?

TY Warm
Don't get a rear one man. You don't need it. I think warm misunderstood your post as a front strut tower bar so im not sure if it would work anyways.

warm is wrong. the bar will not fit. there are some sensors on the v6 intake plenum that will interfere with the bar. using washers for a strut bar is ghetto

That's Hijackers 3G.

so the consensus is yes then?
Wait on it, I know somebody has confirmed this for sure before. Qnz may be right.
the megan strut bar fits and it goes straight across i don't see why this one wouldn't fit..
Here is an example:
GTS Intake plenum. Notice the larger section in the rear towards the STB.
6G72 intake plenum. Notice it does NOT have the larger section in the rear.
Not to mention the DC Sports STB wouldn't be availible for the Eclipse for so long if it didn't fit the 6G72. In fact if anything it would have the same problem with the 4cyl intake also, but it does not.
That link takes you to the one they specify for the 4cyl (not that there is any difference).
But you'd better just make sure to order this one:

Dave, the first photo you posted is of a Diamante intake manifold. The one RAZ posted is a GTS manifold. DC Sports specifically lists the STB as for the GS/RS only, so it may have fitment issues. Personally, I think it'll work.
