Yes I paid $275 from suprastore....but I noticed that Bottle from Titan Motorsports has a group buy on right now for the bars for $250...that seems like the cheapest route right now.

thanks for the quick reply. im going to haggle with the price anyway coz i met a guy that works for them at the car show today and he said that he'd work on the price. now i just need a place that will do the install coz i don't have the time to mess with taking the engine cradle out to intall

Do the rear sway by yourself and ONLy if you don't have the tools take it in and get the front done.


the rear is easy, remove exhaust, take off "heatshield", remove stock sway bar , install new sway and reverse other directions.

it's that easy. front sux cuz you have to drop the engine cradle

yea i'll do the rear myself. the front im still debating. and im also debating on installing my teins myself. i've intalled springs on honda and they're cake, but something about doing the intall on my celica give me headaches. if anyone has done the tein install i'd like to get some advice. plus i was wonder how much did labor cost for those of you that had the front sway put in. thanks for the 411 you've given so far.

I've heard that they're too stiff... I auto-x a lot and do an occasional track day, the streets have treated me pretty good. :)

Without race tires comp. sways are able to "overpower" the tires causing oversteer. At least thats what I remember being told.
