They will fit, if you're creative. I think it was Tech-Nics, maybe, who posted a picture of it a while back. I believe part of the hood was even sticking out of the passenger side window, but he had it in there. It was possibly a decapitation hazard.

why didn't you go with suspension technique they make them for both the front and rear. The rear sway bar for suspension technique is 22mm if I'm not mistaken.
what front sway bar will you get?? nice addition btw

Well suspension technique is in america and shipping would be very expensive. Whiteline is in australia and shipping was alot cheaper. Well celicas fwd understeer, so logically you get a rear sway bay to get a netural effect. On medium it would be 20mm and on hard it would be 21mm.
I rekon this would make a massive change waiting for the weekend to get it on. And i might man up and get my tyres in the next couple of days and watch my bank acc. plummet back down again
