unless you feel like replacing the bottom half of the ssra all the time at like 150 a shot, dont get it
i know 3 people that had the ssra, all three of them crushed or ripped the bottom piece off in less than two weeks

Tell your friends to pay attention to what they are doing. I have had my SSRA for 1 year, and have had zero problems

it doesnt really have to do with paying attention, there are certain places that i drive every day that no matter how slow or what angle i hit it at i hit my air damn, including my driveway.
the ssra hangs almost as low as the air damn and is placed in front of it, i wonder what would get knocked off first

yes...1st i bought a FTRA, then i heard everybody saying that the SSRA is better because of the super sucker so i went out and bought that from austin.
do i need it or not?
thanks

check this out: https://ls1tech.com/forums/generation-iii-external-engine/138682-ssra-now-available-without-scoop.html
the SSRA is now being made without the scoop, similar design to the FTRA except its not metal (no heatsoak), and it doesnt block the radiator as much as the FTRA. i think that is the way to go.
