Default sway bar question

I planning on doing a GTE swap on my sc300, just want to know if id need to go with supra swaybars to clear the motor or can I go with ones that fit the sc300 directly

you can keep the standard swaybars.

if you went to supra swaybars you need to change the swaybar link-kits to supra because the mounts on the end are different

Are you using the stock IC plastic pipe that runs along the engine bay bottom. If so, you might want to look into the supra sway. A little more rear twist on the geometry give you more room for the IC pipe.

You'll need the rear subframe from a Supra for OEM or aftermarket Supra rear sway bars. The front sway bars from the Supra should bolt on fine to the OEM mounts.
