Strut tower bars

I have seen the many threads with opinions of the GTSPEC and Cusco but what about Alutec or Circuit Sports. Alutec I believe was included in the review but am seeing that Alutec was named Circuit Sports. Also some come with a logo and some dont. I read the post that there is no difference just the logo. I wanted to confirm what is what with the Alutec and Circuit Sports.

So nobody knows if Alutec/Circuit Sports is for sure them same company? Isee both bars, are the welds and quality made the same as I read they could be made in different places. Am I asking questions in the right forum?

I just looked at the Alutec brand IMHO it looks cheap. And for $50 more just go with one of the other name brands

Thanks for the opinion. There were numerous reviews and some said that a straight bar with solid ends. I found this one review. One of our vendors here sells Alutec but seems Circuit Sports is the new name is why I have the questions. This review was on g35driver.com. On a previous car I had one of the solid bar design.

Another review ( I think I might read to much)

Ive had all three. If you want adjustable then go Cusco, I think it looked better and was better built than the GT Spec. You will have slight rubbing with almost any bar. In my opinion, the Alutec/Circuit Sports bar is the best at doing the job though. A single bar as opposed to a bar with two joints will stiffen the struts a bit more. Probably more rubbing than the rest but if are wanting a strut bar for the purpose of stiffening up the front, a bar without joints will be better.
