Megan Racing is distributed allll over eBay.
One little brace won't do anything by itself, but adding it along with a bunch of other suspension componenets is natural.

Get it, but get the Tanabe version instead. I think you can swing the extra $50 to get a real brand.

I'd get Hypermotive - $100... looks much better and it's a known brand
- I saw that GB as well, but these rear under braces don't really have a benefit as far as stiffening the chassis. If you're getting the TRD rear strut brace it's pretty much all you need back there besides sways underneath... I may get the Hypermotive one just to complete my set but imo it's not really a necessary mod

I heard that Megan is crap. I would go with Tanabe. It does help but only if you're pushing your car to the limits.

no matter how hard you push yoru car its not gonna make a difference wher eit bolts it is alreayd very stiff.
if youare looking for a new brace go with the cusco front lower tie bar (not tananbe front )
makes a world of difference cause it bolts where there is some play tanabe's front doesn't
teh rear lower tie bar is not noticable on anyones car just a nother mod for the list
