I've got one. I got mine from Raretrick, and it took forever to arrive. Apparently, it had to be ordered from JIC Japan. I can't say that I noticed any difference with it. However, it was installed after numerous other suspension add-ons. Those being Supra TT Bilstein shocks and Eibach Pro-Kit springs, Daizen front and rear control arm bushings, Daizen front and rear camber kits, Daizen sway bars, custom aluminum rear strut tower brace, custom lower front tie bar, and 18x8.5/18x9.5" wheels wearing 245/40R18 and 275/35R18 Yokohama AVS db S2 tires. So, I don't know if it would have made a more noticeable difference on a stock car. One thing to mention, it bolted in easily, unlike the IS300 version.

It will not fit with the EDFC motors. I had one of the JIC strut bars and had to sell it after I installed the EDFC. I don't know if any of the strut bars available for the SC will fit with the EDFC. The Cusco appears to have the most room, but I would still assume that it would hit.
