Under "Toyota OEM and TRD parts"

It will fit a 2JZGTE SC without issues. If you have a 550cc resistor pack mounted on the driver side strut tower, you'll need to relocate that for the strut bar to work, but that pretty much goes for any strut bar.

If you gonna install it on a car with 2jzge , you just leave the ring that goes on the strut mount and just bolt the strut bar on top of it. It works great .

The Titanium TRD strut bar offered by MVP sure looks nice.

Wow! So $850 for a lightweight knock-off?

I can't have have one ordered with the number "69" so I guess I'll just stick with my TRD one.
