This had it's own separate thread but I figure it belongs in this one too.
What goes into making an ASM GT Bar. All ASM GT Reinforcement Bars are made in Japan by Succeed Sports. Succeed Sports is led by Ichikawa-San who is also the chief engineer of the record setting ASM Tsukuba Special Time Attack Car. Before Succeed Sports, Ichikawa-San was a race engineer at Mugen prior to the M-Tec transition and headed such projects as the JGTC Mugen Takata Dome NSX. Each GT Front Tower Bar is hand made by a master craftsman at Succeed Sports from high grade Japanese stainless steel. All the torched colors and marks have been left naturally by the process of hand bending by torch or welding by hand. They’re not simply color treated for show. The entire manufacturing process of each bar takes 4 hours so only 2 can be produced per day. In Japan, many of the ASM GT series bars hold design patents to protect their innovative designs. Ichikawa-San himself going through the process of making an ASM GT Front Tower Bar.
