Can anyone find a UGO front STB or knows who carries them?

Good luck with the UGO. They dont make em anymore and not many are around. I only know of 3-4 guys with them. I will wait for the Tein. Should be priced good. Thanks for the update.

well my next option is the TRD for 192.00 on ebay.. Not a bad price for great product... The Tei n was going MSRP for 145.00 i beleive... But that seems a bit low considering there products are pretty expensive.. I contacted TEin so hopefully I'll hear from them..

There's so many choices... RMM, TRD, Tein , Carson STB, DSR...etc.. just can't decide... When i first got on CL the RMM really caught my eye...
Whats your opinion Terry...

I think the STB's are a decent addition to the car - looks and some improvement in stiffness, but for my money the Tom's Front LCB had a more positive affect on the steering and handling. I had the Tom's front LCB installed before I received my DSR front STB. I did not really notice much difference when I installed the DSR STB.
Looks wise the RMM looks real good, probably the best IMO.
I will be changing out my DSR STB when the Carson Tuned STB is available. I'm only doing this because the DSR bar was 'banged-up' from shipping and I was offered the trade-out with the new Carson Tuned STB. I will jump on this. From a performance standpoint the TRD should be a good STB since it is one piece, thus no bolted joints - less flex potentially ( I say potentially since other factors will affect stiffness ). Downside of the TRD is that it is not compatible with the Tein EDFC. I like the new Carson Tuned design since it does not have bolted joints and allows Tein EDFC ( something I need ).
IMO - looks RMM, performance with EDFC installed - Carson Tuned ( in chrome of course! )
