I'm planning on tightening up my suspension and I need some advice on purchasing the suspension bars. Does any body know a website that I can purchase suspension bars. Preferably somewhere in California, this way I won't pay S&H. What's the best brand that I can find and exactly how many bars are there that would stiffen my chasis completely. Once I'm done with all this I'm planning on purchasing TEIN coilovers.

Hotchkis Swaybars, Cusco lower front tie bar, tanabe rear tie bar, TRD rear strut bars, and a host of tower strut bars for the front.

I like Hotchkis alot, plus their suspension pakage just pulled 1.07g on an otherwise stock Celica GTS. Swaybars are 397. Shipped from Titanmotorsports, more from Hotchkis itself.

Check out Titanmotorsports.com (Forida), or Optauto.com (CA). Both places have about the same prices. The Tanabe stuff is usually on back order cause it's imported direct from Japan. But it is good street race quality stuff.

Hope I helped some.

Everyone seems to agree that the RMM, or Tanabe front strut tower bars are the best. Also, if you don't mind a little work the TRD rear strut will help correct the oversteer from the front bar.

Yeah... contact David Draper over @ West Covina Toyota. They have an awesome reputation here on the board.
