Default Question about TRD Sway Bar kit

I'm just wondering if anyone has installed the sway bar for their tC? If so, how is the handling after that? I'm thinking of getting that but don't know the result. Any help would be very much appreciated. THank u.

Yes, the rear sway bar makes a noticible difference in handling, especially when cornering. There are two settings: Street and Race. The Race setting is stiffer, providing more handling improvement than the Street setting. On the other hand, the stiffer the suspension, the harder and noisier the ride. I have mine on the Race setting and I definately notice that my ride is bumpier than before, but the improvement in cornering is worth it.

with all due respect to OEM,,,, the sway bar is a mandatory "upgrade".

should have been standard on the car.

Set it to street, u dont need track unless u track the car which hardly anybody does.

btw, do it yourself,,, its a SIMPLE install and fun to tinker with.


u need a 14 mm wrench, a 14 mm socket, and a 5 mm allen wrench,

torque wrench too if you are a perfectionist. : )
