Summit racing strut bars, Tie bars and bracing

hey guys came around to finally installing everything and wow what huge difference I highly recommend the strut bar in particular what tremendous difference. next on the list is the MID brace and im done. :smile (2): I wasn't to happy the way the orange brackets sat beside the KIDO blue camber plates so I bought some paint stripper and primed it and shoot it with some black textured paint and it looks to me 100 times better. tell me what you think. Oh yeah for those looking to get aluminum oil cap and rad cap but don't wanna dish out a fortune for stillen, nismo or who ever else makes them I got these on ebay for about 50 buck shipped out to me and the quality is really good billet aluminum. anyhow here are some pics tell me what you think.

Hey guys, Update on the group buy. After finally getting some time to talk to them its come down to there is NOT going to be a group. From what I undersatand there prices in comparison to the competion is already very low which is why they cant offer group buy. I Have 4 of there braces on my car and im extremely pleased with the quality and performance gains that I got. I only want the mid brace and im done. if you have any questions I would be more then glad to answer them

Here is a GTSPEC Mid Chasis brace to save some shipping of the Summit from Taiwan.

really good price but shipping is out of the roof. I can get the Summit brace delivered for around 200. plus I already have all the summit braces and they're orange minus the strut bar. The 2 rear lower tie bars are orange the front sub frame tie is also orange so if I get the mid chassis brace orange would be a must for picky people like myself.
 
I know what you mean since it still comes out cheaper then the ebay listing. I would go for the Summit one too just to get color matched. :wink:

im pretty picky and cheap lol! I really try to get my bang for the buck even GT SPEC group buy prices are more then Summit racing regular pricing. summit sells the strut bar for 178 GT sells for 225. the front lower subframe tie bar I paid 160 Gt sells that bar alone for 259. that's $147 just on those 2 bars. I haven't seen lately but there was a member selling the lower subframe used 230 which I get because he paid a lot more for it.
 
Could someone please post the email address for summit racing? I'd like to order some parts from them, but I'm having trouble finding the email address on their site since its in a different language.
 
Hey Guys, I've also tried to get a hold of them and for some reason I'm not getting a reply. I know that you can also purchase them through Mark over at Kido racing (he's the one who told me about Summit). In the mean time ill continue to try and get a hold of them.
 
yes, like logan says...i have all the braces from summit and they are awesome..who cares bout the color..ha,ha
 
Trying to navigate Summit Racing Taiwan's site is by far the most confusing online shopping experience I have ever encountered! There is no pricing, and no way to purchase! I followed the advice of nsousa and went to their contact us link, only to be redirected to a software app store! Maybe they are affiliated somehow. It defies logic that there is no indication that these entities are affiliated. Anyway, I went ahead and sent an email through the app store. We'll see what happens. As a side note, I was able to reach Summit Racing Europe, and found what I'm looking for, which is the front 4-point ladder brace (called front cross-member brace lower on their site, & front lower chassis brace on the Taiwan site). There is an ability to purchase from the European (Netherlands) site however, with the conversion rate, shipping and taxes, it comes to about $400!!
 
I don't think they can sell or want to the US. I have sent them a couple emails and not one reply.
 
Im don't live in the US and even I cant get a hold of them even after I placed that order. I know that Mark from Kido racing can also get all the Summit racing products He's really quick to reply... usually within a day or so. Try that route.
