I contacted Bulletproof Automotive about the J-Speed 3-point front tower brace and they said if we can get at least 5 orders for either the front or rear braces, we can get a price of $270USD each + shipping. So that's about 10% off their website price.

The fronts work on all celicas from 1990-1999

The rears are also 3-point and only work on hatchback celicas from 1990-1999. These DO fit with the rear seats

I'll contact them about additional discounts for more than 5 orders...

but for now, is there anyone interested?

A 3 point rear? Where does the 3rd point go? A hole in the trunk pan? =P Also... how did they manage 90-99 fitment? 5th gens have different dimensions under the hood...

jspeed makes a bar for both 5th and 6th gens. the 3rd point bolts to the middle seat bracket on a hatch. 270 is not a discount. I paid that for mine. I was not involved in a group buy.

Be prepared to wait almost 6 months to get this from bulletproof.

Good luck

i bought mine for $260 each (both front and rear) + $50 shipping.. so $270 is actually more than wat i paid for? bought from bulletproof automotive too.. took 2 months for my rear to arrive and 8 months for my front to arrive.

i guess defgeph answered most of the questions about 5th/6th gen fitment and the 3rd point for the rear

the 270 + shipping is for one bar. i'm asking about the shipping prices

when i looked through parts database i saw the people who got these all got it for about 260-270 but i dunno how you guys got the deal of 260 before. because the price on their site rite now 307 which is already 10% discounted from a regular price of about 340

importing stuff will always take a long time. generally about 2 months. this is the same with all places. these are supposed to be made special order by jspeed and once bulletproof gets them, they don't ship until they have a full 'frieght crate'

Are you sure it doesn't go to the floor bellow the struts? I've seen braces on Celica's like that before, but never to the back were the license plate is.

Hehe... I've never seen this bar in particular. My point was more to question the organizer... who should provde a bit more detail if he hopes to get people in on the buy. The descriptions are rather vague.

I was in on that before I lost my Celica(even happier now though with a turbo Supra).

Though I would have been willing to pay 270 for it if I had the cash. These are well worth the money for the extra performance over a standard 2 point bar.

Although I'd ask if it comes with the bolts for the firewall. I had to go to Ace to get the bolts.

I might be intrested if I can rack up $600 assuming that shipping is like $30.
Does anybody have the side tower braces?? I might be wanting some of those too!

I have the front bar, and am also pleased with it.
Rear bar will not fit coupes, based on all the information I have been able to glean on this item.
