Stiffness of the damper should have an effect as well. Using the same dampers? Been debating a rear sway bar but I'm honestly happy with the car's handling as is so haven't had much of a push in that direction.

Same springs, but not the TRD dampers. I kept those on the Vios when I traded it in. I'm just using the factory dampers pairs with the S.Tech springs until they go out, which I would then switch to coilovers. Since they're factory dampers, I'm sure they're tuned to understeer since that's what manufacturers prefer cars to do. However, I think it's more due to the fact that Dory is a hatchback, which aren't as rigid as sedans or coupes. I can't put in any bracing in the interior of the car as well since I load it up with groceries and stuff weekly. So until I get coilovers, the only thing I can do is play with the tire pressure to change the handling characteristics.

I really only got the TRD RSB because TRD had that flash sale, and dropped the RSB price down to $113.

I was tempted to get my FR-S the TRD sway bar kit as well, but decided not to since I had gotten it the NUR spec rear spats. Plus I rarely ever drive her now days. Lets just say the last time I got gas for her was right before new years. Gotta burn off that gas when I have some free time...
