who makes parts to stiffen up the RX300's suspension?

I do not want to lower it, just stiffen it up so it doesn't feel like such a boat.

I figure running different tires with high tire pressure will help too.

I came across this link for replacement sway bars - they don't have them available for the RX yet, but they are supposedly on the way.

I also recall a thread in the suspension and handling section on 18x7.5" wheels - the theory was that in order to accomodate the wider rims and still clear the suspension struts it is necessary to use wheels with a smaller offset, or fit spacers. Either way, the track width is increased which coupled with wider low profile tyres, reduces the body roll to some degree.

I haven't tried either so can't comment what difference they make.

One could increase the tire pressure by 4 lbs to 34 lbs and get an idea of how things might change when you stiffen the anti-sway bar or put on wider tires. I notices an inprovement in handling right away.

Another low cost idea is to just put the spacers on the wheels you have now to see how the handling changes.

Then there are wider tirers.

And/or larger wheels.

Stiffer anti sway bar.

The spring kit I've seen will lower and stiffen.

who makes stiffer shocks / struts for the RX300. I've got Tokico 5-way adjustables on my MR2 right now and WOW that things just flat out handles like a dream.

Not expecting a RX300 to drive like an MR2 but a little stiffer would be great for me.

i think tein and tom's makes coil overs for the rx300...expensive but definitely the way to go to button up the suspension/handling
