So i plan on buying the front strut bar, but im not sure which one is better. I asked the toyota dealer and the front factor strut bar for the GT is $90 + tax. And then i was looking on ebay and the cusco front strut bar was $193. Im assuming the cusco which is more expensive is probably better since it goes all the way across the engine and connects to the whole strut mount. While the factory gt strut brace only connects to 2 of the bolts on the strut mounts and connects to the middle of the chassis. So which one should i go for?

i'd say go with the cusco, i have both the factory and a cusco bar on, drives like a go-cart with my SS suspension

cusco... the oem is flimsy and can be bent easily, unless if it was the TRD brace.

Is the cusco better than the C-one?

c-one is better. 3pt > 2pt.
but more expensive as well..

you guys have any websites to get strutbars? because i cant find any

Try a company called "Greenline" or "Nengun" both based in japan but with english speaking owners / telephone answering people etc Nengun can be a bit slow on delivery but they have loads of goodies to choose from...cheap to, well compared to the prices we get stung for in the UK.

No worries, glad I could help, but like I say, be patient when you order from them as they can be a bit slow.
