are you gonna autocross it or something? they handle pretty good stock. i'd spend $ on good shocks,springs,struts,wheels,tires before the swaybar unless you already upgraded that stuff

What about switching out the rubber for some aftermarket polurethene (or whatever it is) bushings cushions etc.
I've considered this myself with the miles on this Celica

thanks for the suggestions they will all be taken into consideration. it is still stock. i would like to get some 17's and some new struts and springs. im not sure what to go with on the struts and springs tho. i would like to get into racing so im not looking for a street package. does anyone even make a rear sway bar kit for the ST?

Unfortunately for you, you own an ST. This stands for Sh*tty Type. Racing isn't an option unless you swap your engine out. So before you do any mods to your engine get the engine swapped, it will save you money in the long run. I wish i had swapped mine as soon as i got it. Now im just stuck somewhere between somewhat fast, and somewhat slow...

I plan on going to the 4agze motor and swaping to a turbo and running about 15-20 psi. of course i will have to upgrade injectors and get a fuel management system. but that isnt what im concerned about. i want to know if anyone knows if there is a rear swaybar avaliabe for the ST. before i do my motor swap i want to make sure i can make it competitive or else ive wasted about 5 grand
