Nic Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Heya, i bought yesterday an TRD front strutbar but does it supposed to hit the intake manifold? or can;t i use the TRD strutbar? The TRD strut brace will not fit the NA Supra, only the TT. The only quality strut brace designed to fit the NA Supra is the Carbing one, which includes a brace for the brake master cylinder. I can supply these at very good prices, please pm or email if you want details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he looks to have put spacers on to raise the strut brace a little. so when the time comes to buy a strut brace off you I now can get a blingy TRD one!!

Ian R Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Ray had some of the original "spacers" polished up and mounted the strut brace on top of them instead of removing them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lebsteif Posted February 18, 2006 Author Share Posted February 18, 2006 I can;t read that topic that you gave me, but i just took a look again and i think the TRD will fit. but, even if you lay the strutbar on top of the spacers there is minor space (read: 4mm) between the bar and the engine. Does the engine need a lot of space when it shakes/moves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
