You told me that this front bar rubs? Does anyone else have this problem, easy fix?

Any info on this bar with oem USDM hood would be great.

Thanks-



Where did you buy that cusco strut bar from??

Tiga, do you have a strut bar in your engine bay?

Anyone have any feedback about the GT4 rear bar? I'd like to buy one. Is there an updated link to where we can get the Cusco strut bars?

And there's a GT4 front strut brace? Is it better then the one that comes with our comes from the factory? If so, what's the part number?

The GT4 strut bar will fit a GT hatchback with no problems, right?

Yes but you will not be able to put the oem shock tower plastics from your GT. You'll need to order the GT4 ones or just leave them off, as I did wink.gif

since i'm new to the celica, where is a good place to get some inexpensive strut tower bars. i bought the car for $700 and don't plan on doing a lot to the car since it will be my daily driver and possibly rallyx car.

Just for reference, after talking to a Toyota dealership, the GT4 rear bar is no longer made.

Where can I find some in-expensive front and rear strut bars? Someone needs to make replicas of these.

I saw that, but $239 is ridiculous for a STOCK strut bar. Whoever would pay that much is an idiot.

And that front one looks cheap.
