Sway Bars

im looking to buy a rear sway bar and curious which would be the best.

looking for something that will definately help with cornering, and provide a 'stable ride' for somewhat cheap.

help? :D

Progress SB, there is a hairpin turn where I live and I can take it as fast as in my miata. BTW it is kinda funny than on my miata I took out the rear SB to handle better.

BodyRoll = Understeer. So by removing the bar it balances it out better.

Progress or Whiteline. Both are ~22mm and bolt on.

The Progress is physically identical to the TRD except you'll pay $100 more for the TRD. Either way, they'd both do the trick.

I like the TRD...weld it into place too, then your golden, theres actually a tiny bit of play in the mounting holes under extreme cornering ;)

Partshippers.com has the Progress for $145, TRDSparks.com has the TRD for $145; don't quite see the "$100 more" there, but then again I didn't check shipping.

How true... the last time I checked the price for the TRD it was $249. I guess that was from the dealer though... anyway, I can admit when I make a mistake .
