I do carry a lot of speed in my corners at the.. track.

But a sway bar, that'll just be exaggerated under my normal entry speed, and it'll kick out at lower speeds, right? I'm not 100% sure how these solid rear beams work 100%.

BTW, putting a sway bar induces under steer in the front, and over steer in the rear. I think.

it reduces body roll and neutralizes steering

this is of course dependant how big your front and rear sway bars are to eachother.

I was running a 22mm front sway bar with a 22mm usdm type r sway bar on my old integra and it handled beautifully but it would really kick out and give me some good throttle lift oversteer if i wasnt careful

overall, sway bars are usually the best suspension mod in my book so i will definitely be buying one in the future

by the way, does anyone know how large the front yaris sway bar is and how large the trd rear sway is? im curious

I believe the TRD Rear is 22mm.

I don't know about the front. I don't feel a need to change it anyway.

Put a rear bar on. The car will feel more planted and you will be able to carry more speed though a corner. I've noticed it actually keeps the entire car flatter through a corner.

It absolutely DOES NOT induce front understeer, it reduces front understeer.
