Got my Hotchkiss...

hotchkis breaks more often than most other swaybar companies. poke around subaru/honda forums.

.....but they all break.

and chances are as a corolla owner, you won't have anywhere near enough power to clean break one during autocross.

hotchkis break mroe because they are hollow. noob.

Ok fattie, learn to type, it's "more" not "mroe"
and "breaks" because you are referring to more than one incident,

Hotchkis sway bars are also 8mm or more thicker than their competition, noob.
:Ewned:

Hotchkis is hallow. That's why they're thicker. Solid core bars have more structural integrity. The stock bars are solid as well.

That's what I was referring to, they have more diameter, aka, more circumference to make up for being hallow, but yes, i agree to having more structural integrity.

I would prefer solid bars. They're easier to install.

They're smaller in diameter and thus easier to finagle in.

It's already hard enough having to lower the gas tank.

There is a world of difference between hollow and solid sway bars.

The stock Non-Si sway is hollow and the Si sway is solid, they are both close to the same size. I swapped my LX sways for SI sways and its a night and day difference, once I get my suspension it should make it even better.

.......

Si 28 front/17 rear solid
LX/EX 25.4front/11.0 rear hollow

Being asian, you should've realized you didnt have to lower the tank. Unscrew, twist and pull out the right side. Success. I was an idiot and had a full gas tank, so I used my azn inginuity to figure that shit out.

Took the Rolla out for another test drive last night with the new Hotchkiss's. Went on some curvy back roads to try out the handling. On new thing I noticed is a bit of oversteer when I go through a turn. I'll see If I can adjust them, or I just may have to live with it.

My brother and his wife Just purchased a New rolla (2010) did Toyota have this included from the factory a rear sway bar? His rolla is the fully loaded Xle if not included guess i'll be helping him update his recent addition. His scion Tc is pretty hooked up hers is next.

There is a factory rear sway.

a common error that people make is thinking that just because they install the part means it should make the overall car perform better. sometimes its trial and error when tuning a suspension as you may have some other component installed that's not working with the sway bars. i didn't read the whole thread, so is it front and rear? you could try taking the front off and see how that works or remove a strut bar if that that installed. it just depends on how much time you want to spend fine tuning the suspension.

The rear bar is adjustable, right? What stiffness setting is it on?

Hotchkis sells their bars for the corolla in a Front/Rear combo, so i'm assuming this is for both. Though their front one they sell isnt that much bigger than a corolla stock, and its hollow...so eh.


edit: i think its 25mm in the front...and 20mm rear for the hotchkiss, and the stock front is like...23? someone had it posted a while back

Thanks I'll check under that car this weekend when i stop by to visit.

i know, but people also say headers when it's header.

99% of the time these mods are for daily drivers, so i bet people would never be able to tell the difference either.
