Recently fitted Cusco Suspension and Strut braces (front and rear) to my n/a Supra. Supplied and fitted by Hyper Sports and Performance (other suppliers available). ?Front brace is very tight to air box but does clear and rear brace requires a bit of cosmetic hacking away at the plastic strut covers. Hard to say how much better the handling is improved by them because I fitted the Zero-2 suspension at the same time...

cheers john. i shall have to try and find a local supplier who will let me try before i buy because i have had a custom induction pipe made and im not sure wether the brace will clear the pipe or if it has improved space.

at least now i know they do exist

I have one for sale for ?30, black ends with polished middle. I'm after the TRD one so this has to go. All you need to do to make it fit the N/A is make some spacers.

Uk im very interested in that. what work is involved with the spacers?http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif also would you need it to be picked up or would you be able to arrange postage at additional cost?http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif

Rob, i can arrange postage no probs. Not sure what you could use as spacers, if you need them at all. I just think you might, maybe just some thick washers of some kind?http://www.mkivsupra.co.uk/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/rock.gif
