[uhupong]

Hi

Thank you so much

i feel your pain man, i just ordered an STB from Electrodyne, which was stupid cause i should have called first, but it is going to take three months according to them to get some in, so my order is back ordered right now, which sux cause i have to have $100 in my bank account at all times until it gets ordered so they dont over draw...

Be smart, and ALWAYS call and make sure they have the part you want in stock before purchasing!

[Dilemma]

they got deals for the STB on ptuning.com

It's ridiculous that its so difficult to get the aftermarket STB's. I wish Mistu made one specifically for the Galant.

uhupong,
I have a brand new OEM Eclipse STB for sale. The same one you would be able to get from the dealer. Let me know if your interested. Its only $45 shipped. You can email or pm me.

It's really frustrating. The Freedom design is always on backorder from what I've seen. I called Electrodyne and he basically said to get it through ptuning because they were snapping them up as fast as Electrodyne was making them!! I got the feeling if you ordered them direct you were waiting even longer than through ptuning... (they got priority?)

If you don't want to wait and want one tomorrow go to the dealer and buy the one that's for the eclipse. It's stock and will fit the galant.

Good Luck

there are other places to get the strut bars besides ptuning and electrodyne. check out other places, many speed shops might actually have some on display or some in their warehouse or something. you might want to try those out also.

Hi
I bought a 3rd gen eclipse STB from my dealer today. I tried to install it as in how-to section of this site but it did not work for me. It is impossible to position STB as shown in this web site. (It look like the on inthe picture did not bolt on the tower ordinarily)
May I ask the one who posted or whoever have eclispe STB in your galant that how did you do it ? Do you have to drill holes by yourself . There is on way that I could just unscrew and put it on.

you got 3 main parts to the 3g oem stb. u got the actual bars and then u got the plates that bolt the strut bar to the strut tower. did u get all 3 pieces or did u just get the plain bar?

[uhupong]

I only got a bar and it cost $ 60. Anyway thank you for the one that offer me eclipse STB. I would buy from you if you offer a little faster than that.

Thank you for you help everyone..This is a great site.
P.S. So what should I do ????????????? :shock:

[uhupong]

I wonder is it possible if someone could take a close up picture of those 3g eclipse STB parts and mail it to me at [email protected]

[pinoyesv6]

60 dollars for just the bar...u got ripped off. nonetheless, it should be like u need to get some 5 dollar brackets for the sides and a couple bolts. go to the dealer and look under the hood of an eclipse GT if you need help describing it
