Hi there,
I was looking at the jspeed front and rear braces and they appear to be really good units. Does anyone know where I can find these for sale?
thanks for any help

Hey Cham, Im in the midst of getting a jspeed bar. Im in Japan at the mo and ive emailed one guy about a group buy possibility for 6gc and celica.net on them from Tokyo. Keep us posted about what prices you get and Ill try and keep you updated on what I can come up with. I might be able to save you a few bucks.

Ill on the road at the mo doing a road trip around Japan and I'll be back in Tokyo in about 2 months but im trying to get some information together about prices and shipping etc while Im travelling.

that would be cool sikboy if you could get us those braces

that would kick A#$ if you could get the braces for us! >>

Ok,
So I got a reply email from alamo today saying they dont sell them. I told them that I thought they had organized a bulk buy in the past and would they be interested in doing another. I have yet to hear back.
just wanted to let everyone know.

OK guys. I have some news from the guy that can get me the jspeed front bar but it might not be what you want to hear...

He says that Jspeed have problems with their bars. There are a lot of faulty bars that they make and you cant get refunds on their products. Im guessing that he might be talking about bars not fitting or the quality is not good. He also said that its quite hard to give a discount on jspeed. He gave me a price for 1 front bar which is 25000 Yen which converts to about $211 USD and you have to add shipping on top of that. This is the rrp so that is the top price that anyone would pay for the bar. He hasnt given me a discounted price yet and im hopping to hear about that from him soon. I am also waiting to hear from him about the shipping price. I asked about the prices for shipping by sea and air and he said that air would be a lot easier.

He can give me more discount on cusco bars if anyone is interested.

Cuscoe isn't 3 point though, is it? Charlie, any comments about the JSpeed?

what about the c-one strut brace. do they still make those? i think those are also three point.

They might, but they're gonna be like $600. Like everything else made by C-One >> I mean, there's this suspension upgrade for the GT4's that's like 2 grand >>

Suspension upgrades are always pricey. I was pricing a Tein suspension for an MR2 that I was looking at, the FLEXMaster with an EDFC(adjust bound/rebound from inside the car) was gonna be just over 2k.

Alamo is BSing about not being able to get Jspeed products. They are the ones that sold me mine back in the Celica.net group buy.

Any leads on the rear Jspeed bar or any other rear 3-point?

Hey Arronc222, Sorry for the late reply. Im trying to organise a group buy on celica.net and if they decide to go with Jspeed and we get 10 people in I will ask about a discounted price for the rear for you. If we dont go with Jspeed do you still want me to get a price for you for 1 rear Jspeed bar? I am pretty sure he can get it.

How nice is the actual GT-4 strut brace? That might be an option.

The accual gt-4 strut brace is nothing more than a little biger gt brace. If you want I can get ahold of a couple TRD braces for a little under 300. Let me know if your interested via PM.
