well i got the trd stb and also the lcb from steve of carson toyota last week (let me say again he has some of the best service... but that's another story) and installed them this weekend. mind you i already have tein HA coilover and also some 19". i don't have the l-tuned ecu and i haven't adjusted my steering wheel rack yet.

my impression? very nice. now i don't know how much each of these does, but overall it really tighten up the front suspension quite a bit. the lcb is a replacement, but it's heavier and thicker so it probably tie things up better. the stb is add on and it kinda locks up the suspension from the top.

before i got this two things on, when i am on the freeway changing lanes or stopping, the steering wheel will easily steer "out" of direction and try to go somewhere else.... that's most likely coz' of my wide 19" gripping uneven ground. so a lot of times i have to hold on tight to the steering wheel to make sure it's at the right direction.

however now after i put the two things on, when i change lanes or stop, the steering wheel is straight and pointing the direction it's supposed to. no fighting and i don't have to hold on as tight as i had to.

for 300 bucks is these good mods? i would say so. when you try to push that kind of handling performance out of a heavy car like the gs, this is what a great add on

Nice, rominl. I'm waiting for my LCB. No STB for me since I have a GS3. Did you do the install or Exact?

Cool. I guess I need to give John a call. I have the TRD Front LCB and the Tom's rear LCB coming in soon.

Neo,

you could get the Tom's STB with 3 spacers per side and it'll go on your 300

Hey bravo,

I'm stubborn that way. I'd rather not deal with spacers. I am still holding out for the UGOs. I am considering the RMM ones but the UGOs are still on the top of my list. Although Steve is working hard to get me a set, I have been waiting for almost 9 months. :eek: Not Steve's fault though.

i see. something to make sure, just in case....for some reason, i heard spacer and thought it was a gasket-type thing of foam or whatever. its a thick metal spacer i found out, if that changes anything. but good luck to your quest for something

They must make the UGOs at the same place where they make the TRD sways...

If you asked me this a month ago, I would agree with you. I was waiting for my sways that long too. A shipment from TRD recently came in, though.
