not so much a traction bar but its a replacement front crossmember.

Most aftermarket B-Series headers in 4th gen Civic's and 2nd gen Integras have fitment issues due to the massive front crossmember. To use some of the big name headers like SMSP and Hytech, you need to either modify the front crossmember or get a replacement, as shown above.

the integra one:

I have... uh.... "seen" the EF/CRX one, its a pretty stout unit. just wish they offered it with the actual traction bar set-up like the DA bar

When I had a B in my CRX I had to make "room" for the header. I simply took the route of a big hammer.

When I put a B16 in an EF hatch I had to cut the front motor mount place off the front cross member and notch it a litttle bit. I also had to make room for the alternator, i just took the hammer route on that one, really didnt want to cut on the frame.
