from what i read they removed it to improve ride quality when they stopped producing the ST model

they stopped putting the strut bar in the GT in 98 i think. not sure why exactly so mine doesn't have one. i want to get a Jspeed, C-One, or TRD strut bar soon. it's just a matter of finding one.
so if anyone has one they are willing to sell me LMK. i have started a couple WTB threads without any response.

Glad to see you finally put that lip on. Looks awesome.

i ended up finding one that was already silver from the factory. to be honest it was almost cheaper than just getting mine painted. since it's OEM paint so it'll stay lookin good too.
thanks and it's on my to do list

I love the celica light custom?
ST202 SS-II CELICA threadNew Zealand members check inSticky thread's: How to contribute and troubleshoot.
it's a sticker overlay that goes on the light. i came up with the idea and lewfx made the stickers. he may still have some. i'm not sure though because he got a new job and i'm not sure if he sold all of the ones he had already made.
so i didn't get the springs on yesterday as planned
it was raining for the most of the day and i don't have access to a garage. hopefully i will have the time to do it this weekend.
either way i plan to take plenty of b4 and after pics.

there should be since from what i hear the stock bar is pretty flimsy as well as this has a full triangle for support and the bar is thicker and more stiff. mostly i'm just buying the name (sadly ) i would much rather have a jspeed one though but they are way hard to find and usually they cost a bit more as far as i've been able to find.

its starting to look very tasty the trd brace wont make much difference to stock but it will look absolute great and well done on getting it ive got braces front and rear the rear is a great difference but front is pretty stiff due the reinforcing bar behind the dash loving the car tho and keep it coming great posts

Holy fart can...the rest looks good though! I need some new speakers and deck, so I basically wanna do what you did in that department.

it's actually not too farty. it has a pretty low growl. it doesn't sound ricey like your typical civic can. i didn't put it on there though. it was installed when i bought it. i might eventually get a new muffler but i think i'll wait until i get a full exhaust system done. i'm still debating on keeping it NA or FI. i'm leaning towards NA cuz it's cheaper and more reliable. maybe i'll get my cams done from webcams eventually. i won't really do anything with the exhaust until i can decide.
i love the type R speakers. they sound great. i just wish i hadn't cheaped out on the sub. the one i have is pretty decent but i think i'll eventually upgrade to 2 type R 10s or 12s.
thanks for the compliment though
