Default ugo strut bar

just got a bunch of stuff from carson toyota today. front and rear carbon fiber strut bars from ugo and trd sways. i noticed on the ugo box it says it is for the 160. i have a gs430 which is 161. it seems like it fits, but i want to make sure. does anyone who has the ugo know if the one designed the the 160 will fit the 161.
thanks in advance

JZS-160 = S300
JZS-161 = V300

Your GS430 is UCF 30 which is none of the above.

I have a GS430 (UZS161) and the UGO STB's (front and rear) fit fine...

thanks guys,
the bars went on without a problem. i first had l tuned on 19s and then i went to the tein cs. there was a big improvment. after adding the sways and strut bars, there was another significant difference in handling. now i am thinking of doing all the braces, front and rear chasis braces in addition the the 6 links. do you guys think there is going to be a difference if i add these things . in other words, is spending that extra 1K worth it.

Significant? I wouldn't say as dramatic as the sways but worth it ? Different people have different levels of value measurements so I will not presume to answer for you. As for me, Yes. The car is a different animal.
