Looks good! Good choice.

That looks to exactly the same as the Hotchkis piece. Not the beefiest strutbar on the market, but perfect for the street and light racing. It is also the best fitting and cleanest one on the market. I had it, then gave it to my Son.

takes a lilttle getting used to Il tell you that much. The car has a way different response when you turn at a high speed, well atleast thats what I think. I hit a 90* turn over here by my house yesterday and kinda oversteered cause I was used to the car trying to slide out of the turn. Instead it gripped the ground and I had to correct....Will you belive my car uhh fish tailed? The back end slid around a little bit and the tires squeeled. Was kinda scary but since its FWD was pretty easy to get out of. I understand how to turn now but still have to get used to it, theres also alot less roll in the body. Id say about 60% less !! They have these bars on they're website for $100 but I got it on ebay for $40!! I love it, well worth the money and I reccomend it to anyone whos interested in tuning they're suspension. What are you using now navy?

I was at Jotech one day and saw a beefy strutbar w/ blue brackets. Well, ya'll know me; if it is blue, I want it. These brackets, of course, have a problem with how they mount on the strut tower. It also makes it a pain in the but to change out the plugs. Are you running an upgraded rear swaybar?

Wait till you get lowered, a fat rear sway bar, beefy endlinks, and an LSD.

You wont believe the way your car corners.

Do they make lsd's for the tc yet?

[Vmix06]

yes u can get the lsd made by trd from the dealer or aftermarket but i havent checked the after market ones the lsd from the scion dealer is like 1350 but thats not including labor if u let the dealer do this for u

I think I have seen the price drop down to like $1130 or something like that. Phantom Grip makes an affordable alternative. It consists of two blocks with stiff springs that ride on the carrier shaft of the spider gears. Although not a true LSD, it would be enough for any street brawler. Price is just under $300.
I actually have a set that I have yet to install. Got my TRD LSD shortly after and just been too lazy (busy) to install it.
