1st & 2nd Generation (1983–1986 & 1987-1991)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 1983-1986 & 1987-1991.
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
I have KYB GR2's, I have B+G springs, I still have a ton of body roll. My question is.....Will the swaybars from whiteline make a huge enough difference in body roll for me to actually get them? This cars suspension needs some serious viagra!

you are always going to have some simply because the axles run under the car instead of through it, the car is way too far off the ground and is kinda tallish and narrow
I have a 1988 camry wagon 4 cyl, 5 spd. I put KYB GR-2's, Intrax springs, and front and rear Whiteline bars, and currently running soft snow tires. This is the best suspension I've had on a camry. It isn't like an exotic, but the bars sure keep the car flat. Just make sure if you go with the bars you search all the past posts on them. Make sure you get a hardware kit with them, and you are going to need to pick up some different washers than what they give you for the passenger side.
You know KYBs are closer to stock then Tokicos are?

Maybe you have some bad bushings somewhere, cause all it took for me was a fresh set of struts to get my Camry to feel "SWEET" on the turns!
look for raptorracing (his sn) here in the sale section.

i just recently installed kyb gr2s and intrax lowering springs. so far i have been fairly pleased with it. it is noticably stiffer than my old suspension was. I am not sure how the body roll will be yet for me though, still have yet to autox the camry with the new set up. I am concerned about body roll though, because I'm going to try to stick a set of big tires in there, and I don't want them to rub. I guess I'll figure it out after a while.
this whiteline sway-bar i have been reading a lot of lately. how good is it? worth buying?

yeah but at the time I didn't have re-sealable struts.
Anyway I'm meeting with some of the local auto-x guys and they've told me about a few companies who do custom suspension work. What they have recommended is a custom setup with Ground Control Coilovers and sending some stock struts off to koni so that they will make custom inserts for them. Apparently koni has a program for this. So I'm going to look into it more but I'll buy the sway bars first and stop at home depot on the way home for extra bushings.lol
