I got the first set. The back is the same. The front is different. If your car is not lowered, it doesn't matter which set you get. If you have a lowered car, the original front bar will rub on the undercarriage and make an awful sound particularly under hard accelleration or cornering.
The new front bar is as smooth as butter. The sway bar mod was definitely the mod that made the most difference in "feel" of the car.....well, right behind the 3sgte that is...... -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

I had the old set on my last celica and I will agree the best mod I did to that car, although I never had that "rubbing" problem. I will be ordering them begining of next week cant wait to get the suspension done so the celi will be fun to drive

[right][snapback]328937[/snapback][/right] The front rubbing was due to the car being lowerd. Non-lowerd cars were fine. Are the new versions out then im guessing? |

come to think of it... It was a long time ago but I think I had to bend in some of the floor pan so the bar didnt hit. My bad it was along time ago. Picking up my car tomarrow, probably be placing my order this week for my suspension.

If nobody calls or emails them I might....this should be the next step for me, but first I'll get used to the Tein coilover setup and see if it needs anything.
