I am talking to TechnoToyTuning, the same ones who made the tie rod flip kit about making extended ball joints. The tie rod flip kit was meant for the MK1 MR2 but fits the 5th gen celica. If the tierod and ball joints of the 5th gen also fit the 6th gen, this would be a solution for your guys as well.
For those wonder what roll center and bump steer is, check out this article. http://www.motoiq.com/magazine_articles/id...oll-center.aspx
They say if we can get 10 people interested, they can make something similar to this for much less. He expects around $140 for the ball joint and the flip kit is around $70.

Note the final design will be different from this one.


We currently have 6 people interested at alltrac.net so if anyone here is also interested please let me know. Or if you can verify the 5th gen parts fit the 6th gen.

Intersting.. sure im just let me know the total.
I would be more interested in a adjustable rear camber bar though.. haha
If nobody can make them i guess ill make something like the toe bar amd make it adjustable. They are on negative camber and the camber bolts are not enoughh to bring the wheels close to 0 camber.

Why don't you just get two toe adjustment bars on there? lol
Even if you have two, you can still adjust the toe, but you could also adjust the camber too
