it says its been available since October of 2003. Either its mislabeled or it has escaped our 6gc eyes for over a year.

Looks cool, probably not a picture of our application.. I'm betting its either A) for another car and a misfile, or B) the regular TRD brace we have

Check the for sale forum for a TRD strut bar that was sold by Kwanza. They are completely different. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

You guys don't seem to understand I'm saying this could be a misentry, like a lot of the other parts that exist in crappy little stores that no one ever finds, than one person does, and they buy it, and the store emails them saying the part doesn't exist.
I'm not saying the picture is of the same three point style TRD brace we had that was discontinued- nor am I saying the description is even for that |

QUOTE You guys don't seem to understand (what) I'm saying You are right. Since the word "its" would normally refer to what has been posted, we assumed that you were talking about the picture. Perhaps you could have said: "I'm betting the pictured bar is for a different application or the picture is incorrect and they are really selling the regular TRD strut bar." I bet you are right on that count too. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

i believe sean meant that either a) it's for another car and a misfile <meaning just that> or b) that it's the normal one for our car. <and that picture is just an image of A TRD bar..but not THE bar in which you'd be ordering> ya know, one of those "image may not be actual item" type things...
either way...it's 250 bucks...  . anyone know when TRD came out w/ the style bar that's in the image??-John- -------------------- AIM==Mynzeyes

i'm not really digging this bar, it seems too heavy and I like the three point design better. looks pretty good though.

i've just called them to clarify and the strut brace's for the 93-98 supra. so that's not the strut brace for celica.
