I have a front, an I didnt notice any dif reallt at all. Im also looking for a rear, any one have the gpart number for the gt-4 rear?? I tried search , but its not working for me.
sway bars are where you'll notice more, strut is just reinforcement.
Take from the JDM part # sticky :

GT-Four Factory Rear Strut Brace - This isn't an exterior styling part, but it's a pretty rare part that is JDM.

well if u go to bullet proof automotive you can get the Jspeed strut bar front and rear. but no one has talked about the SIDE tower braces. you think that does anything
I'm sure the side braces do something, it's just a matter of is it enough to mess with. I don't think they'd sell them unless they were decent. Can't get anyone to post opinion on them, I've searched for it. But as far as three point brace, you can just buy a point, and weld the stock to it. That's was Kwansa did, and that's what I'm going to try to get done this weekend, a long with an underbody panel and cooling panel.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I have the GT-4 rear, and a Megan Racing Neon front, and I noticed more with the rear bar. This could be for a number of different reasons. But I did notice a difference on both. You'd notice more with sway bars, but it's a different feel all together.

how much for the rear gt four strut ???? or is there any cheaper way like going customize ??????
gt-4=around $80. It'd be hard to get the same performance out of a custom, well, I guess that depends on who you are.

Can anyone here find a way for a group buy for the rear version?
GT-4 bar from any Toyota dealer. Just make sure that they know that it's not an American car. I got mine in in 3 days, they accually had this part instock in Maryland.

SO? Your saying that the neon front support works on the 6th gen? If so, what year neon? If it's cheaper and easier to get ahold of I am game.

got pics?
I have had pics up but they are gone now. It is easy to describe - strait black bar. Nothing special looking about it. I can post a pic later today.

wow your right, i emailed them the part #'s and they can get them the next day, sweeeeeeetttt...the strut bar is 86.11 - 25% coupon and im getting the GT4 hood vent for $36.44. >biggrin.gif>
What is the hood vent? Do you have pics?
will the GT-Four strut brace fit on the coupe? I figure it would, but i would just like some positive feed back from someone with a coupe that has purchased one. Coupe with TRUNK, not a lift/hatch back...( I know from looking through the members rides some people can not tell the difference between a coupe and a hatch back)
biggrin.gif !!!!! where can i email them so i can get them? and they will take other jdm parts right?

<--- I miss :'' (
Can anyone take a pic of the GT4 rear strut brace installed? The one that Batman showed isnt available
