I have been tossing that around...

It's all about the interest being there.

When the GS gen2 is done I will see If carson would like to post an interest thread up like the GSGEN2 thread....

Anyone have any pics of the axle area under a SC?

Ok guys, GB has been updated, we now have the bars listed for the second gen GS as well as the 3rd gen IS and GS, and the SC430 . We will get the bars in about 2-3 weeks, and we will still be 99.00 shipped lower 48 states.

Question

Very interested...but need to know if these will work with lower rear chassis brace (Tom's, JDM, etc.) on 2nd gen GS. Are these replacing a stock piece on the second gen GS?

Yes, it replaces a stock stamped steal piece on the rear subframe... i dont think it will interfere with the other braces.. but i dont know for 100% on that...

Thanks for the clarification...just want to make sure it will not interfere with the RLCB before I pull the trigger!

Thanks,

for some reasons, these looks like they are the same replacement parts as some of the Tom's 6 links.

Is that true? If so then no need for them since I have Tom's 6 Links already

To answer some questions

If you have the toms then no need for the Tunedparts bars. These were made for the people who didn't want to spend 400 on the toms bars and wanted to replace some items.

These have been made to clear the exhaust hangers for the GS models and there is plenty of room. Kept our design in spec with the car in mind.

thanks

Question

I have a 2001 GS430. I do not have the Tom's 6 links, but I do have the Tom's style lower rear chassis brace. The lower rear chassis brace is square in shape and mounts in four locations. Will these billet bars work with my Tom's lower rear chassis brace?

Thanks,
DJC
