Default TRD real sway on TRD spring

i know the TRD sway bar makes a huge improvement but is it still day/night difference if the car is already lowered?

can you guys share some opinion if you installed the TRD real sway bar after the car is lowered? is the real sway still rock n roll or it is even not noticable?

I put my TRD sway on after running the TRD spring/strut combo for over a year. It was noticable immediately. Maybe not day/night, but better for sure.

i installed the sway bar on the street setting on stock springs and noticed barely anything.

then put the hotchkis springs on, drove it on the street setting for a while. it hadled nice but still had some roll to it.

then a few days later realized i had the sway on the street setting when i meant to put it on race. but when i switched it from street to race, even with the hotchkis springs on i noticed quite a difference. a lot less roll. i even got a bit of oversteer on the stock tires.

tires are the weak link after springs, sway bar(s), and fr strut bar have been installed. the car stays pretty flat in the corners and still rides nice.

the REAR sway bar makes a significant difference in handling

you'll notice it.

^^ I agree. The front of a stock tC seems pretty well sorted from the factory.
