LS400in520 has a strut tower bar on his ride... That he modified for his ride at a great price. He sent me that info and I deleted it by mistake so LS400in520 send it to The_Ikon1911@yahoo. com (thanks)

I think it was a Supra brace(93'-96').... I think "MyPhatSC400" has one too. "Banking" has one too I think...

Maybe one of these guys will post for you...

Im not sure exactly how to contact him but go to the poll: Custom Made SC STBs in the SC forum. He usually responds to posts hourly. Just ask him what u want and he will help u out.

I got my bar for 50bucks. It's was for the new generation Supra(93+). the bar will not clear the engine bay unless mounted on wahser. I used one plastic one on he bottom for cusion, and 3 very thin one on top of that, the ride is a little better. You can look at some pic uner the LS forum, it's an old thread but its called: pic of my car.... by me
need more info just feel free to ask.

Um.. like i said all you have to do is mount it on so washer.. it all depends on the size you use to how many you need. You can email, dayle www.motorsportswarehouse.com and tell him that tony with the lexus sent you.

Default we got em..!! sort of

actually...we have the SC300-GS300 , LS400 in stock, True...$80.......but I just ordered about 10 Cusco front upper bars for the SC400 specifically. Cusco has 2 styles..one smaller then the other...both polished aluminum. I dont have pics of the cheaper one yet. I do know one is going to be about $185, the other is going to be about $225. ..I hope to get them in about 3-4 weeks. Im taking orders now and deposits. I also plan on getting in a few Rear bars for the SC400, possible the 300 too.
Just wanted to let you all know......dayle

Hey Dayle,

Who's STB for SC300, GS300 and LS400 costs only $80?

Also, the Cusco bar that fits the SC400, I take it that it's the same one that fits the JDM Soarers...I also assume that it will NOT clear the engine on the US Spec SC300...

Will the rear bars for the JDM Soarers fit the US Spec SC300/SC400?

I want to know if it's worth even developing STB's for these cars. I have heard a lot of people looking for the STB's but no one had them or they had to Mickey Mouse a bar for another car to make it work...if Cusco already had some good bars for the SC300/400, LS, and the GS300, then I might as well not develop them at all...(what's the point?)

Our base models from Japan...Freedom Design etc..

The ones I ordered are specifically for the US version SC400 cars with proper engine clearance......The SC300 motor has More clearance.....but we have other ones for less $ for the SC300s....

Will the rear bars for the JDM Soarers fit the US Spec SC300/SC400?...have no idea yet.....have to wait and see, Im going to check fit the rear when it comes in..

I have heard a lot of people looking for the STB's but no one had them or they had to Mickey Mouse a bar for another car to make it work...if Cusco already had some good bars for the SC300/400, LS, and the GS300, then I might as well not develop them at all...(what's the point?)...They all serve a purpose, install one and youll see......plus they look great!
