How much? I'm tempted as well. Already have Pro-C's, progress rear sway bar, cusco strut bars and T1R front under arm brace. This rear under brace and the fender braces and I should be set until I'm ready to do a roll cage.

 

what is your zip code in PR

 

After checking out the website are the items under the Fit/Jazz 2008 the bars that are compatible with the USDM GE8?

 

yes the 2008 fit is the GE8 but not all bars will fit

 

Which of the bars on the website are made to fit the USDM GE8?

 

08 fit is GD - 09 fit are GE

Some might be sold in 08 but it's the 09 models

 

08 is GE in malaysia since it was a year early over there but yes you are right
in 08 the chassis is GD in the states

 

So... no list of which ones on the site will fit? I think we are all aware that the 2009 model is the GE. On to more pressing matters, There are several on the site, are the underbody and engine bay bars all compatible because those are the ones I'm interested in?

 

did you ever get those fender braces in?

 

I put in the fender braces in my car...check out my profile and look into my albums. https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/album.php?albumid=310
I have installed a Mugen front upper tower bar first…what a difference in handling it made! I was also amazed that these (Ultra Racing) fender braces made a significant difference in handling also. Almost as much as the Mugen bar did…it has been quite a while since I’ve installed the Mugen bar, so I don’t quite recall the exact feeling of the improvement…but non-the-less an improvement! I wanted to install these fender braces, because I personally didn’t think that they would make any difference at all…boy, was I wrong! I then installed the rear lower Ultra Racing bar. Since I had the ass end up, I installed the when I installed the rear lower bar, I installed the Performance sway bar. Because I installed the two improvements at the same time, I don’t know which mod gave me the biggest improvement. Three words for the rear end mod…Just , do it!

Now I got excited! The more bars I installed the better the handling got on my ’07 Fit. I wanted more! The next bar I installed was the Ultra Racing front lower bar. I didn’t notice a difference when I installed these, but I didn’t have a chance to really push the car hard like on a track. At track speeds, this bar might make a difference. At street speed, I didn’t notice a difference.

Next I installed the C-pillar bar…same story here. I didn’t feel a difference at street/highway speeds, but I’m not going to remove them either.

I was also very impressed with the quality and weight of the Ultra Racing chassis bars. They are all steel – but so is your Fit’s body.

My next mod is to install the Mugen 5-way adjustable suspension that I’ve had for a few months now, but I have not had the time to install yet.

 

front strut bar will not work. the underbraces will work.

look in hond tuning there is an article of a GE that was upgraded with UR parts. they added a few underbraces. Also the rear sway bar fits too.


i can tell you that the FRONT STRUT BAR will not fit because of the brake fluid reservoir

 

glad you like them JODELE!!!!!!

how much tension did you put on the C pillar bar? if you put that on first and then the rear lower bar/sway bar you can feel a slight erence in the rear.


glad we could get another fit freak'r a more enjoyable car to drive

 

I installed the two ends with the shoulder belt bolt just finger tight. Then, if I recall right, it needed a 22-mm wrench (big wrench!) to adjust the length. I didn’t use much pressure on the wrench, but everything started to creak as I screwed the adjustment out (longer). Then I torqued the shoulder belt bolts and then the two jamb nuts to lock length in place.

 

loosen the tension and tighten the ends first. then adjust the tension tighter to where it gets pretty snug. you probably wont notice it as much since you have the rear sway bar and the lower 4pt brace

on my miracle x bar i did the same thing hand tight and they came loose after a little while i only knew cause it unscrewed all the way to where it was rattling on the end links of the bar

 

Zip code for me is 00646. Quote me for this bar and the fender braces.
