There isn’t a whole lot of write up on a rear bar install. (Hatchback, including type r).


I’ve had this for over 7 months now probably but have not gotten around to installing it.


It’s pretty straight forward.


Lower rear seats. This gives you access to the c-pillar panels. NO removal of panel is needed but you do need to at least have it pulled back. (Unclipped)


Once you pulled back the panel, you pull back the carpeting and you can see the hook that is there to lock in the rear seat when positioned up normally.


Take out those 2 bolts on each side and remove the hook also. 12mm

Put bar in place and then put the hook over the bar and re-install the nut.

Trim carpeting. (Around the bar, for a clean look)

Other options are j’s racing and Beatrush. Not necessarily cheap options...

Thanks for the nice write up but you may want to consider a little spring cleaning. Holy crap! :eek:

Put in the new accessory, rear seat back protector
Way easier than the rear STB lol (but I'm really interested to do it someday)

Looks good. :thumbsup: I didn't even know they had such a thing. Great protection if you haul a lot of larger stuff.

Yup, it's available this year, though I don't have much to haul around, but I think the day will eventually come, and it's good to be prepared:D

There was one time I was giving someone a ride, and he surprised me with a pair of ski:confused1:

Just got the Greddy Supreme exhaust thanks to the team at Evasive. I must say it's a nice upgrade from the silent stock exhaust and love the look of the exhaust tips. However, this exhaust is giving some major droning at between2k-3k RPM and it goes away above 3k. Some users said it will go away within weeks so we will see. Cruising sound is very smooth but the droning can be too much although this topic can be subjective. I'm also feeling minor lower end torque loss although it could be placebo.....

Installed the OPT7 LED taillights. They were a total pain in the ass to install as you have to take the plastic liner in the trunk off to get the small little lip. Had I known that I wouldn't have gotten them but I really wanted LED taillights. I do think they look SO cool. I am a sucker for the sequentials (though these blink crazy fast) and the nice solid look and better brightness than stock is cool. Will try and get better pics later.

I hate to break it to you but I've had mine since April-ish, it still has that drone between 2-3k RPM:( (I find the worst to be 2.5k). I guess I've gotten a bit more used to it buuuuut I'm either considering having a resonator put on or different exhaust, maybe the Q300, though the burnt tips aren't my favorite...

*edit
Oh and I definitely feel like there's more of a delay in the throttle/torque like you said... Which makes me wonder about just putting back on my stock but the stock is just so puny :confused:

I mean it's hard to go back to stock once you been with Greddy minus the droning.....I wonder if saving up for a 27Won exhaust is worth the price and if it would still drone....
