Default Carbing strut tower brace

Everybody e-mail[ sales@tein.com] and tell them you want them to finish building the Carbing strut tower brace, that has a built on mater cyl. brace as well. Made from lightweight aluminum, of coarse.

Carbing makes the badest strut tower brace for our cars, it is a direct bolt-on, needing no spacers for the strut mount bolts. It also has a built on part that braces the master cyl. for improved braking. Only problem is that they make them for other cars, but ours is still in developement. Ive had my SC for 18 months and been waiting. Tein usa should have a website with appl. and pics.

carbing is some hardcore stuff...fully welded construction makes it a solid, one piece brace unlike some of the other stuff out there with bolt up construction...

i want one for christmas now.....pics ASAP!

if they really have the carbing strut bar for our cars, i'm definitely picking one up. we should have a gb on the strut bars when it comes out.

Good question, but Im assuming that since the sc400 optional vehichle on that webpage does not list a Carbing strut bar, so the Supra T.T prob. has a diff. master cyl. or lower intake height.

just talked to one of the reps at auto r&d and told me that the carbing stb will not be available until the end of the year. i guess i'll just have to wait.
