Cusco doesnt hold any starion strut braces in stock, they will make it up so it will take 6 weeks to make.
Starions are a disease, the only cure is poverty.

Fair enough, I didn't actually know that :)
There's some on YAJ at the moment for 8.8k apiece. I wonder... Do Starions run the three- or four-bolt strut tops?

Speaking of YAJ, there's 7 or so pages worth of parts for the A187 on there at the moment :)

That's for A183
http://auctions.search.yahoo.co.jp/sear ... e&slider=0
And that's for 28 pages of A187 bits. Looks like somebody's wrecked a couple of widebodies and listed EVERYTHING separately

Well done! How the hell did you find that? You speak Japanesa?

How do you know which buttons to click to buy, where to pay, etc etc?

Google Chrome has a built in translator, it doesn't work 100% but the ads are somewhat understandable once translated into Engrish :P
All the buttons are translated into proper English though, so that's easy.

If anyone's planning on getting stuff off YAJ I suggest you talk to Streeter. www.jessestreeter.com.

No rumour mate, i had one in my ex and they are brutal :D They pop up on yja a fair bit. I also have a cusco strut brace on my widey, and know Mal bought a set of strut tops brand new.

A ex has 3 bolt strut tops like a early ge style sig/scorps, but they are different to out stazz pattern.

Yeah, there's a couple 2-ways on there right now but neither are a Cusco item. From what I can make out one's some obscure Japanese brand and the other's a Ralliart.
I was hoping either flat or widebody was 4-bolt like later GJ-GN Sig/Scorp, as there's quite a few braces on there for both body types atm. Cheap too :)

Ads on YAJ say front only, not sure where you'd get rears from?
