Just a peak into the prototype which was mocked up for test fitting.
There will be some minor changes such as fixings, a few mm positionings to correct, finish in colour, polish and paint.
More information is in the Celica-club.co.uk.

Main key pints abut this design:
Universal for GT4 and non GT4 with it's modified horizantal bar being 5mm lower so NA's can shut their hoods.
Horizontal bar being centralised between the top mounts for strogest point of support
Entire structure being 10% thicker compared to other current brands in the market
Made from AL6063 ,AL5052
Colour will be gun metal and silver.

Im broke

Update.
Its been over a week now and so far we've tested it in urban conditions in city roads and pushed it hard in country road.
Handling is greatly improved wish such sharp turning response. Literally point the front end and gun it and it will go.
We've had may GT4 members from the GT4OC forum visit our cars and they are all very impressed with it's build, strength and design and it's been prompted as a must have for serious track users.
With the help of others we've made some slight changes in design for improvements. Thinning down the fat and strengthening certain parts.






The rods will be left unpolished same as prototype and ends will be painted gun metal.

As stated price is still to be announced but will be under the £200 mark. Not £199.
Postage from UK to US will be £45. Total price is still alot less then leading brands at a lower spec then ours.
First batch is already all sold out in the UK.
Second batch should be ready in about 2-3 months time so you have plenty of time to save up.
For now lets just keep the list growing.

Easy for you to say when you've also got power at the rear wheels to push the end around.

If you make these long enough, I'll eventually be in a position to need one.

Do you have the ability/willingness to ship to the United States? If so...

How much shipped to Australia, sydney?

You have plenty of time to save up bro but if by the time they're ready you don't have money, I'll cover you.

How kind. Can you cover me too?

I can ship to the USA.
As for postage to Australia, sydney and anywhere else in the world, best I find out when I have them with me for a more accurate price.
I only know postage to USA cos we had 1 sent there.

you need any contributions to get this project up and going? If so I say we all pitch in, you've done tons for this site...plus I want one now!!! lol

Thanks for the offer but we're good on this.
The project is up and running. The reason why you need to wait is because the first batch being made are all sold out on pre-orders to other club members in the UK and to some retailers.

Second batch should be ready in 2 months time so even if I wanted to I cant get one to you any sooner.

Awesome. I was going to Vegas back in April but my buddy had some problems so we had to cancel. Bummer. Gosh, I can't wait for this thing. It'll look awesome since my car will have a new paintjob. Plus, I'll be the only once in Puerto Rico with that part.

very solid prodcut, but adjustability in the front is it really necessary??

Mainly needed for precision installation.
You see when we tested different strutbraces in different cars we found variations in the positioning of the firewall bolts.
Probably due to the difference in engine weights and suspension setups. eg the heavier 3sgte compared to the 3sfe.
Quite often the braces where pushed hard left or righ or wedged into place and this can cause slight changes in your alignment.
What the adjustble rods offer an easier install and less strain in the structural formation reducing warp.

So im guessing the adjustability would make it a little more expensive, alright thanks for the explanation.

Hmmm... never thought of it that way.
This being the only adjustable brace in it's class.
It's grade in Alu and thickness.
Only one in it's class with a corrected point to point brace where it should be.
Still cheaper then C-One, TRD and Cusco of the same type.
