where and what front strut bar to get?
I'd like to get a front strut bar because all my previous cars had it and I could really feel the difference, mainly more tight front end.
So where is the best place to get it? I did some search and ruled out the toms bar and any other fixed bar since they may affect the alignment. I checked eBay but doesn't seem there is currently any bar on eBay for the sc430.

Hey there, if you want to go on E-bay and look for the GS 430 strut bar, the GS & SC use the same chassis so the bar will fit. Double check with the seller to make sure it will fit the SC before you buy. I would think that the E-bay strut bar would be a cheap knock off and would look great but may not stiffen things up as much as you might like. I am thinking about getting one myself but just for looks more than the performance end of things. If it tightens things up that would be a bonus!
Good luck!

Yeah, I saw a bunch of eBay bars for the GS. Anyone else knows if it fits our SC430?
Well, I used the eBay vehicle fitment selector and it shows not compatible with our car. Anyway, I asked the question with the seller to test fit on the sc430.

Well I stand corrected, the guy I contacted on eBay said the GS bar would fit, that the chassis are the same. Guess you can't believe everyone! If you do find one please let me know as I would like to get one also.
