I agree, Ultra, with an exception that I will note. The stock sway bars are so thin that you could use them for coat hangers. I replaced them with the TRD sway bars and the handling went from very good to exceptional. My entire upgrade process has been built around two premises: (A) I want to keep the handling characteristics WAYYY inside the safety limits, and (2) I wanted a little more power. Basically, I've reached the point where the car performs fantastically, I have tons of fun with it and the next increment/upgrade is so steep financially that I doubt I will take it. BTW, why would anyone want to lower a car that already scrapes every parking concrete stop and 7-11 curb at the stock height? Also, since I don't have a car payment (paid cash) I don't need to be concerned with a monthly hit.

Go back about a year and it really was Off Topic and there were about 5 of us that came here only sporadically. It now serves more of a Chat function really. On a related note I am having internet connectivity issues and am getting sick of looking at little circles spinning and pics down loading at 1996 speeds.
