The GS400 have the greatest clearance out of all the cars. However my TRD bar barely cleared it, and I retained the stock spacer. If I take the spacer out, it'll prob rub the cover.

Other members said that this TRD bar was made for the GS400. It won't clear the GS300/430. Hope this helps.

Just take a tape measure and measure the diameter by eyeballing it from the front of the wheels. That will be good enough for most peeps as I doubt very much Brembo made these in dozens of different sizes.

I will verify before final sale though

The TRD bar was made for the Japanese Spec 2JZ-GTE, which sits even lower than the GS400. The GS400's 1UZ-FE is only alittle higher than the 2JZ-GTE, so it would clear with no problem.

The 430's 3UZ-FE sits much higher, so it won't clear. The GS300's 2JZ-GE runs the intake manifold on top of the motor, blocking the path of a strut tower bar.

I know very few people (1 or 2) that used spacers on a GS300 without engine covers to fit the TRD strut bar. It fits and clears the intake manifold, but it also touches/rubs/hits the hood, and it takes force to close the hood. I would assume that it will damage the hood in no time

It goes into your transmission and gives you faster and harder shifting. A must for FI
