    the TRD green may be fine just depends how long they are, and what setting you run them on. adj them all the way soft and go for a drive, take note of how the car handles. then adjust it all the way firm and drive again. which ever setting felt best start there, and adjust 1 setting at a time then going for a drive to see what it feels like. stop when it feels just right.

    in my rolla a 6/4kg setup was pretty awesom for hills and such, i prefer my car to drive more balanced then over the top oversteer.

    Front: 27mm selby bar, 4 way adjustable
    AJPS coilover kit with cusco camber tops
    8KG springs
    Rear: AJPS 200mm 6kg springs with kyb shocks i think
    20mm selby bar, 4 way adjustable

    Its stiff but not to stiff, really good for the track, very tail happy.
    And still driveable on the road as a daily.

    Are only Tanabe bars hollow?

    What is the ideal sway bar size front and rear (solid bars I guess) for a car with 6.5kg/4.7kg F/R , RCA's, using fast road tires (not R-compounds)?

    Any advice?

    have you been reading at all?


    BUY ADJUSTABLE ONES, BECAUSE EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT AND HAS DIFFERENT DRIVING STYLES

    Any other input on a good size for that set up? Adjustable are very expensive in the states. Probably not going to happen. Thanks for being polite about it though!

    if you cant get adjustable i think your only other way is to try one and see how it goes.

    or find someone who has a simliar setup to you and have a drive.

    a setup that someone has might be good for them, but when you drive it it might be terrible.

    adjustable isnt that much more than fixed? only a few extra holes?

    btw did anyone see the adjustable swaybar that they showed on v8 super cars yesterday? with the rotating blade to adjust the stiffness? VERY cool.

    if anyone is interested heres a pic.



    you can see the in-car adjustment mechanism (via cable on that spinning thing), that spins the blade making the system stiffer.

    i just brought a whiteline adjustable 20mm?? rear bar to put in my ke70 with hilux diff and it doesn't fit! the way they have bent it means it won't fit on such a big diff, so i found a factory 16mm? jdm ae86 one and it fits mint

    and the best way i can describe the differance is that the rear end feels much more connected, and does what i tell it, and when you change direction suddenly its far easyier to catch


    the fact one uses rounded bends while the whitline one uses very sharp bends

    I'm in the process of putting swaybar mounts on my diff and I think I'm going to have the same problem as you.. Looks like I'll either have to get one custom made or see how a RA60/JDM 86 bar goes.

    if you find one that fits i'd be keen as to hear about it, i made mine 3 way adjustable (because its in a wagon and the factory mounting points weren't there) and have been playing with the settings lately and they give a good amount of adjustment but i think with a 18-20mm bar i would have the perfect range
