I thinkt he 19 mm bar makes sense for you. I run a TRD, which is essentially the same as the 19 UR bar,a nd I like the balance. I feel like the 23mm bar would cause too much rotation for me, with my autocross setup, but everyone is different on that. If its just a street-driven DD, don't think you'll see any advantage in the 23mm.

I've come to the same conclusion. The 19mm bar is just right for my needs. Just waiting for more cash to come in now and looking for a place that can install it at a reasonable price and that can torque the bolts properly.

Any private mechanic shop should do it for very little, but you'd be even better-off going onto scionlife.com or a honda forum and finsing someone who'll throw it on for $20. It really is that easy, and fast. Took me 20 minutes, and that's with a smoke break. :)

I'd do it for free, just for the fun of it

I'm trying to get a friend from work to buy some upgrades, so I can install them for him.

I've never worked under the car and don't know where I'd even attach it. I could go to my Toyota dealer and have them install it, but then that would bring the total cost way over what it's worth.

It's four bolts! Follow the instructions and take a walk on the wild side.
Or bring some lubricant along to the $tealership because they're going to bend you over.
The corner garage might be more $ane.

unless you live in a place where the roads are full of twists and turns, like me. Even then I think you'd have to do 3x the speed limit for it to really help... so you are definitely better off with a 19mm if price is a concern.

i don't know, snap oversteer sounds like fun. I think I'd for for the 23mm just because of that comment. Nothing like the rear end sliding out on a fwd. Pretty cool thing in my book.
