So Toyota is ripping people off and selling TRD parts that don't live up to their description?

Some parts are solid parts, others seem to be kinda a waste if you ask me. Don't get me wrong I am a TRD fan I have a few TRD items on my car |

I do too, I just was wondering the implication of Ultras statement.

I'd rather buy a set of 245 RE71R's than these for the same money.
$700+ can buy a lot of stuff, pads and fluid, solid alignment, tires, 2+ track days, etc. |

Sounds like a lot of money to send your firewall into an existential crisis.

I mean, it's almost worth it for the bling factor, but if I was spending that money on TRD parts, I'd rather buy the steering wheel. Or the strut brace.

Cole: get petrol filling cap. TRD one will let you run on e-URP (unicorn rainbow piss) giving one extra 60 pink ponies without going forced induction.

I'll be honest, this thing is in my wish list lol
I kinda wish, TRD or some other shop bring some bar or something to stiffen the rear chassis a bit more. Kouki 86/BRZ's rear chassis got reinforced, so don't have this issue anymore... but zenki do. |

What about beatrush? I am sure they had a few things like a rear bumper and rear strut bar. I agree I need to stiffen the rear up in my car. The TRD door stabilizers really made that obvious

rear strut bar do help to certain extend... but still not much. Upper rear area (rear deck area), rear strut area and few other area need to be stiffen for our car IF you're stiffen the suspension.
