Question What type of Strut Bars do you use on your 1st Gen LS400?
What kind of upper tower strut bar do you use for a 1st gen Ls400? What brand, where did you get it and what's the price? I'm looking to get one for my 93 LS400.

^that's what I use but I don't know who the manufacturer is. I got it from another CL member. You can send him a pm and ask where he got it, his username is sniper.

I was told that the strut bar from a supra tt would work for our cars with a couple of extra washers installed.

i bought this:

just did some bending to the bar to clear the motor, and it fits perfect.
it looks just like the above picture, no washers needed.

did you bend with your hands or with tools? maybe adding washers for the supra bars, like everyone else is mentioning, would eliminate the bending?
