Thanks for all the info Loule! Where can I find some sites to get some pricing on these parts? Right now, I am interested in the Strut bar since it looks to be so cheap. Also, I need to replace my rear shocks so i might as well just do all four of them and the springs as well.
Can ya list some sites that i can check out. If the prices look good I will be ordering them this week.
To report Edogg's questions, how much different does the car feel with the strut bar in place? Any recommendations on a good one?
As fas as the SRT HFI, for the $800 you get both ECU & Intake? Or is it going to be $800 extra to get the intake on top of the ECU? Si the intake going to be just a bolt-on or a complete cold-air kit?
The Viteck wires, what size are they? 8mm! Are they better than the stock lexus wires?
Thanks for the info!

Arcade the SRT intake should be around $800 for both the ECU and Intake.It will be a complete intake system replacing the stock tube entirely.If it does what it does to the GS400 then I would differently get this unit.We should do a group buy maybe it will be cheaper.
On the GS400 it increase hp and torque by like 10%.Which is approxmatly 30hp and 30lbs. of torque.

Hmm, that combination sounds good. So hopefully if the stats hold up I will be pushing around 280HP instead of the stock 250HP for a 93. I was considering the TC but after reading the other thread where loule (I thnk it was him) said that the SRT TC caused stuttering and shutdowns.
I will work on suspension for now and hold out for the SRT upgrades. Any time frame on when this stuff will be released (Intake & ECU)?
Does anybody have in any info on suppliers that stock the Tokico Struts & Eibash Pro Kit Springs? I really need to order these so I wanna get some good prcing sometime soon. Guess I should check out an import tuner mag and see if any of the suppliers in them stock these parts. One of them should also stock the strut bar for the Supra which I can use!

Hey Loule (or anybody else sporting Eibach or Intrax springs on a 1st gen LS),
Do both the Eibach & Intrax springs drop the car? I do not want to drop the car for fear of messing the undercarriage up in the crater-sized potholes that we have hear in NY. Winter is coming round and these holes are only gonna get larger. If they do drop the car, is there a good alternate that doesn't or am I stuck with the Stock replacements?

Eibach Lowers it 1inch and Intrax lowers it 1 1/2 inch.But once the springs settle in you will get a additional 1/4 to 1/2 inch drop.
I would go with Eibach.H&R has a set but do not know the drop on them.H&R is good too.

ArCaDe007 - The Eibach and Tokico combo isn't that bad. A one inch drop isn't very noticeable and will improve your cornering drasticly. Like NY, Houston has many large pot holes the size of TX and my car is fine (Can't say the same for my rims though). Here are some sites you can look at for some cheap parts:
http://www.groupbuycenter.com/
http://www.thepartstrader.com/mainpa...TOKEN=12692985
http://www.nopi.com/
http://www.modacar.com/
They will also have the cheap supra strut bars.
