not yet but i will in the future.who makes one for our cars.also will this help stiffen the chassis at all.i notice when i put my car up on a lift fron the frame that when i open the doors the kinda get stuck and then you cant close the because the frame has flexed?i assume this cant be good when your driving?

Strut tower bars will not help NEARLY as much as a quality rear sway bar will. Just buy the Whiteline Handling pack (GT4 Special) and it will help you greatly.

The ride will not change w/ a rear sway bar. The rear will be more apt to do what it is supposed to.

From what I understand whitline makes the only aftermarket rear swaybar for us, and there is no aftermarket front. The whiteline is adjustable with 3 settings, so you can play around with it. It was one of my first mods and probably one of the best for the money so far.

Boost,

I coulda swore it was you I was talking to online who was doing front and rear.... Hrmmm I wonder who that was. Well anyway you can contact aussie about what ones to use on the front. I think you would use the same at the regualr celica, but I am not sure. They offer a few custom parts that are not listed in their store, an even larger rear sway is one of them.

I've talked to them, they said it is not the same as the regular Celica. To me it seems like we don't even really need it, if you get the Cusco brace, upgrade the strut tower bar, you'll probably be stiff enough in the front I'd think.
