larger rear sway bar? shock tower stiffener?
Same Deal, for the lemons car, trying to get rid of some of the body roll. Rules do not allow for coil over setups. We cut down the springs, that helped alot, but is there a beefier rear sway bar available out there?
and anyone have photos of a stiffener setup across the front shock towers? Carl Johansson |
I suggest you look at Whiteline.http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_..._number=BTR70Z
for your sway bars. |

front and rear. not super high quality but would help some prolly. making your own isnt hard, just some all thread, a few nuts, some tubing, plate and a welder. |
Strut bars don't do much for the MKIII, really... You'll be better off investing in a stiffer sway bar and replacing all the worn out bushings.
If twist is an issue and it's not a hard top welding in an X brace under the targa top (to essentially make it a extra rigid T-top) and adding more bracing underneath the car in the center may help significantly. |

car is a hardtop, with a full cage welded in so I doubt if I'm getting much flexing, so I'm not sure strut bars would help us alot (willing to give it a try) . i am sure bigger sway bars and poly bushings would help quite a bit. anyone have a source for the polybushings - and maybe a beefier sway bar?

There used to be several brands of sway bar for the MKIII available. Some were monsters and other really won't any better than a fresh OEM unit. Whiteline is one of the few that are still produced and available in the US.
Prothane is the popular choice for the bushings in a lot of my circles... Energy Suspension is another brand (Horsepower Freaks carries these). I don't know if any of these companies makes a full kit for the MKIII Supra but I think someone did a group buy of a full kit on SM quite a while ago; It may be worth looking for to find out which manufacturer it was. Suspension Techniques makes sway bars for the MKIII Supra. It'll probably be less expensive than the Whiteline but a fraction softer. |
