Would you make a 3 point not powder coated for cheaper cost if so i would be intrested?

Also you should look into making a rear strut bar.



X2 for the rear strut bar, and only if its cheaper than the oem gtfour one.

dude, you have GOT to be kidding, right?
the OEM gt-4 bar is like 60$
how much cheaper do you want it?

How much would you sell just the strut tower rings for? I may need a bunch of them if what's in my head works out.

Call me fussy if you like, but shouldnt the mounting point of the cross member on the strut brace be in line with the centre of the shock??? or it will subject the top of the shock to a twisting motion when under stress/load????

Would be interested if you did a three point rear strut brace.

Alright guys, sorry i haven't been around, but I have been busy pumping out metal artwork and other non-celica related stuff. Just not enough time in the day to do everything. Just to let you all know, I am 75% done with my 3pt jig. I can currently turn out single bars, but I think most of you are interested in the 3pt. Ive got some extra time this weekend, so I will finish the jig, and get to pumping the 3pt'rs out.
cool i'm interested in 3-pt front. no hurry.

anyway to make 3-pt similar to cusco front? with the top bar being flat? maybe better fitment with tmic

Initially, I am going to do a run of 10 using my current design. Once I get those done a powder coated, I will be able to experiment a little more, and if I can get a hold of someone in my area with a 3s swap, I can work on a setup for the swapped celicas.

I am currently not offering duplicate parts on stuff that I manufacture. Kind of underminds my desire to profit from my business. If you want a different type of ring other than the exact one that I use, then it is a possibility. Email me a pic of your design, and I will give you an idea if its a go or no go. If it is just a ring with 3 holes, thats fine, my strut bar ring uses special bent ears for welding the cross tubes.
if someone wants i have a front strut bar from a crashed gt that ive bougth for spare peices, its just sligthly bent but i still can take measures of it.
if someone wants them...
Here is the progress on the jig so far. Here you can see it with the prototype mounted. Its about 90% done, just needs 2 more bar supports, and clamps.

That will be well worth the money. biggrin.gif

No - we have no intention on getting into your business by buying the rings from you. The idea we have would not be sellable to just anyone - we want to custom make them to each car for an exact fit. Further we want to take the currently available designs a step further. These would only be available to those of us in Houston or surrounding areas.
If you don't want to sell them to us that's OK too. Just let us know a price for 10 blank rings if you want.


PM'd you

Let me do an initial test run before I get you a price on that. I want to pop out 2 3ptr's and 2 2ptr's, so I can get a bulk price on powder coating. I initially was going to offer them in raw metal, but I would rather just get them powder coated so that they are ready to show and go. I am going to finish the jig today, so more to come soon.
