Would it be more wise to get both lowering springs and the Progress rear sway bar than just the rear sway bar? I like the thought of springs but kind of a hassle (though not too bad) to install it seems but wanted something to improve handling now. Does anybody run a rear sway with front strut bar? I think would be a good combo but just a thought for now. I have heard the front strut bar does not do much.

 

It'll improve a little. But you should just go coil overs or something. lower the car, the lower center of gravity. Then less body roll depending on the springs.

 

Well he's kinda right but for the tC if you go lower than about 1.5" then you'll actually start too lose handling.

Coilovers are great tho cuz you can adjust them for the situation.

Sway bar is a great improvement in handling tho. You'll feel the difference, less body roll around turns. Its a beneficial upgrade IMO

 

a) Front strut bar does very little.
b) It would not be necessary to do springs and the rear sway.
c) Coilovers won't be the best decision for everyone.
d) Even "only" a rear sway will make a noticeable difference. Do it.

 

i got the progress sway bar first, then got the trd spring a year later. The spring was a very noticeable improvement. If you got the money and time to install the spring. Do it.
Screw Coilover. it is not worth it if you don't do corner balance.

 

x2 just get some tein springs, rear sway bar, and front strut bar(for show).

 

I bought TRD springs just cuz they were 100 and were pulled off a new rs5 and then I was thinking to get the TRD rear sway? Good idea? Haven't installed springs because I thought about buying TRD struts. But I heard you don't even need to upgrade struts?

 

u can use stock strut with trd springs. because the drop is not that much.

 

ditto on that ^

I'm currently running that set up- TRD springs on oem struts + TRD rear sway

 

I just got the Progress Rear Swaybar, and I think it may have been almost as noticeable as the lowering springs. The swaybar made a huge difference, especially on the autocross course.
