TRD front sway bar - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I just installed new KYB struts and eibach springs to my 89 corolla sr5 and the ride feels a lot better. Less roll, improved braking and acceleration.

But I was just wondering, I came across the TRD front sway bar online: http://4toyotaparts.com/scripts/trds...search=Corolla, scroll near the middle.
Does anyone have this? and is it worth having? is there a noticeable difference even with lowered springs? Anyone's input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hey dude.. post a pic of your car on Eibachs.. I wanna see what the 1" drop looks like on the coupes. As for the TRD swaybar, I can imagine its probably a bit better than the OEM sway bars on the GTS so it would probably be a good upgrade for an SR5.

I'll try and get some pics up tomorrow. However, the drop is barely noticeable, in my opinion since my car was actually in much need of new suspension as the old struts and springs could barely hold up the car. The rear of the car actually looked lower than the front before the new suspension, now it looks even. Also my car still has stock wheels which myte play a part in why the car doesn't look as lowered as some of the corollas found in the forum.

and it usually takes a while for the car to settle

my suspension looked stock height for the first month or so..... but it slowly got lower for a while, then stopped

the TRD swaybars for the ae92 are unnavailable

go with a gts front bar

With Eibach Pro Springs and KYB GR2 Struts.

Pictures taken with a camera phone. The car looks a little stock height but its actually low enough to where it would hit the top of the parking blocks or bumps, whichever is the name for those things. I'm actually hoping that it will become lower as what toyotaspeed90 said about the car needing to settle. All else, car rides good and I mainly use it for everyday driving.
