DIY - rear sway bar [pics] - Toyota Yaris Forums

pjh · 11-30-2010, 01:54 AM

Hey guys, just got a (stock) 2006 Yaris HB and thinking of doing this mod. How much does this mod (for both 19mm and 23mm) affect the understeer/oversteer balance? I'm looking to reduce the understeer and improve turning response, but I don't want it so extreme as to be losing the back end regularly. I don't want my wife to drive it and end up backwards in a ditch. My gut feel is that this won't be a problem, but does anybody have a comment from experience on how extreme the two sizes are with respect to terminal understeer/oversteer?

Also, anybody have experience ordering to Canada from MI?
