5th & 6th Generation (2002-2006 & 2007-2011)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 2002-2006 & 2007-2011
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
I just traded in the Tc to upgrade to a LE V6 and ready to make some minor mods. I have been thinking about getting the K&N intake. How realistic is the 11hp gain? I am going to stay away from the load exhaust this time around so I am thinking about going with the Borla exhaust. I called Tein today and they said that they have already test fitted some springs and coilovers, they said that they should be out hopefully with in the month. I also called The Progress Group to see if they are going to make a sway bar, they told me that they need at least 50 request before they start to manufacture the parts. Are there any companies that are making the sway bars yet?
The only forward sway bars are made by a company on Ebay, a few members have bought them, with good results. If you want coilovers, Megan Racing already has them out, one member, Moky, already has them on his 07 Camry. Or you can get the Tein Springs for the gen 2 Solara if youre looking for a big drop(ask Princess Peach if you dont mind getting them used) If you want to see a list of then available suspension mods for the Gen 6 check out the sticky for Gen 6 General Info and it should be in a link under there,Aftermarket Suspension. Good luck and we'd be glad to see your car as you're making progress.
But if you want a custom super high strenght blue and green powdercoated sway bar you should talk to Jackster
(Inside joke, don't do it)

Just a lil correction.. the ebay one is a strut bar, not a sway bar... sway bars go under the car...
And yes contact Jakster... he's going to have custom strutbar made with aircraft quality material and a custom turbo put on since he's a hardcore tuner... hahaha

..but we are still talking about the bar in the engine bay making the connnection between the strut mounts and not underneath the car...that is a strut bar in my mind, right?

i would be interested in a strut bar

my original post stated that i had called The Progress Group about a sway bar. This is a rear underbody part. I will call Greddy today to see if they are plan on making the STRUT bars. For my Tc they made a front and rear.

I have a front strut bar from ebay seller critical88. There are a few other members who also have them (Gentchino is one of them)
I also heared that the TRD front strut bar for Tc might also fit our Carmy with very little mod to makes it fit.
