Default Japanese brand suspension components? (Looking for front UCAs)

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to buy front UCAs for my GS430 and was wondering what JDM brands made them? So far I've found Ikeya racing and this brand called Manzo. I'm just wondering what other Japanese based brands made suspension components for the 2GS platform. I know Cusco and Tein made a lot of parts as well. I know TRD also made body braces which are hard to find, as well as strut bars.

I'm not really a fan of the cheap brands like Megan Racing and Godspeed even though they have nice colors.

Can anyone recommend high quality front UCAs and Japanese based brands for suspension components?

TIA

Ikeya Formula, T-Demand, Nagisa Auto if you need to be able to say it's Japanese.

SerialNine is Canadian but one of the best currently making parts, they should be considered alongside T-Demand, Nagisa, and Ikeya Formula. Parts Shop Max (doesn't make a UCA for us) and FIGS Engineering also make excellent products for the platform.

Manzo is a cheap brand you find on eBay, like Godspeed and Megan.

Years ago everyone would use outlets like Sewell to source OEM replacement components.

MOOG was the reputable aftermarket suspension company many were using and that has since transitioned to Mevotech.

Good luck
