Pros: easy install... cheap... works great
Cons: not as bling bling as other bars
Awsome strut bar. Unlike the APR bar, this one does not make any poping noise on hard turns. Fitment is great and you can really feel a difference in the way the car handles.

Pros: Easy install, looks great
Cons: Didn't like the color of the end plates
Easy install, definetely stiffens up the front end, and the price can't be beat. Only thing that I changed about it was the end plates, I got them powdered coated.

Pros: nice construction
Cons: a tight fit
it's a very tight fit for a GT-S. with the huge battery that comes with the 03', it's even worse...

Pros: Easy Install. Awesome performance
I love this product. If you have a Celica you should get this product no matter what. It really stiffens up the front and you will notice the better handling. A MUST HAVE FOR CELICA OWNERS

Pros: good quality
Cons: didn't fit initially
I have a 2003 GT. It didn't fit. Couldn't clear the battery. I noticed that it blocks the air flow that comes in from the hood scoop. Plus the instructions were in Japanese or something. There were no English instructions. Not that instructions are really needed anyway.


UPDATE: OK, it fits if you move the battery connectors to a 90-degree angle.
