    DC5S Gruppe M, 2 Struts?

    I currently have a Mugen strut and I'm considering to get a Gruppe M, but I've seen in a few pictures where some people were able to manage to get 2 struts on... I'm not sure whether it's their DC5R's or /S'
    So basically my question is, can the DC5S have 2 struts with a Gruppe M like the DC5R can?

    If it can which 2 can you have on at the same time?

    I kind of would like 2 struts I might even consider just getting a Mugen intake instead...

    Thanks,

    Ray

    I think you might have trouble with 2 strut braces on a DC5S, because the OEM one is so much fatter and attaches at more points, and often needs to be removed to fit aftermarket strut bars. I have the stock strut bar, a Mugen strut bar and Gruppe M on a DC5R though. Just don't get an aftermarket front strut bar, Gruppe M > Mugen .

      and aftermarket strut bar wudnt do much for a dc5s as it is alredy a 4 point and has more mounts than the dc5r. unless u get a titanium or the carbing 4 point..but u cant have 2 anyway..sacrifice the extra bar fro teh gruppe m..its worth it.

        Speaking of strut bars then, I've heard the Cusco front strut doesn't fit the GruppeM and possibly not even the Mugen intake. True?

          Running a Spoon Front strust bar on the S with a Mugen intake, fits just fine!

            u can run 2 strut bars on a dc5S but u need a dc5R OEM strut and then your aftermarket 1.. if u wanna do this u can wit a j's racing bar but not sure about other brands tho.. The J's racing bar clears a gruppe m but it can damage a mugen intake not much room to move..

            hope this helps mate
