    ra60 is the same as a jdm ae86

    so its not as bigger upgrade as you might think. its only just noticably better than a standard sway bar

    I have a T-18 and use it for hillclimbs and Supersprints. I had 18mm rear and found i didnt have any movment im my rear end and would pick up the inside wheel on tight corners so i removed it and its so much better.

    Now run no rear swaybar, 24mm whiteline front non adjustable but i am going to swap back to standard 21mm as i have a little understeer. I think it will be awsome i run 7kg front 5kg rear.

    Yep, the next A60 Celica in line at Great Western wreckers in Orange still has its sway bars. If anyone wants it I can get the rear and mail it somewhere, or if you're going to the Bathurst 1000 this weekend we are just down the road...

    it will certainly help.

    stouty: if you were lifting the rear wheel i would be suggesting that you dont have enough negative travel in the rear. sway bars/track increase would be better mods for hill climb then stiff springs. what shocks are you running, and how low is it?

    and of course by removing the rear sway abr the front has become the stiffest end and now the car understeers. i'd chuck the rear bar back in and rethink the shocks perhaps.

    **captive springs are good, but springs that are too captive are known as preloaded. which actually reduces the negative travel and increase that 'bounce' the car gets under braking or on bumpy surfaces. which means they handle like shit. preload is used to adjust the negative travel (sag) of a car and thats all.

    dont forget when putting your sway bars in that with the car on the ground there is no "bind" as in the sway bar is not set to high or low it should be set at a height that it is free to just sit there.

    i read it.... in a book

    I have TRD 8 way adjustable green shocks in. Guard sits about 10mm above tyre. So its low but not over the top. I actualy like the way the rear of the car feels without the rear swaybar in.
    Can you suggest some shocks that will suit better as im looking at changing them and the rear spring rate.
