Default Looking for Daizen sway bars

I'm looking for a set of Daizen sway bars for my SC400.
I was told they are no longer in business.
Anybody?

Good luck. They are rare. The website is still up, but I dont think they are producing anything anymore. They are the best sway bars you can get though. If you find some, you will still probably have to pay new retail $500 for them. My buddy found some, guy sold them to him for $250 which is a major steal.

Maybe try posting a classifieds ad on here? It sucks that they can no longer be bought (is it official?). I got a set a few years ago from TM engineering. They have always had poor customer communication, more-so now than in the past (although I recall it being bad in the past also). However, after the long awaiting, they did ship me the Daizen sway bars I ordered. The front bar is like at least 2+ times thicker than the stock one. The rear one is also a good amount thicker.

You are in CA, TM Engineering is also in CA. Maybe give em a call and ask for local pickup? I am sure they wouldn't mind it.

I contacted TME and there were no signs of life.
I contacted Stevens Creek Lexus and they told me that Daizen has been out of business for about 2 years.
I also contacted Exact Motorsports and they told me the same thing.

Owner of Daizen pass away few years ago thus halting all production of bushings and bars. Try supra bars, they will fit by changing to supra subframe mounts.

Oh. That's horrible. I didn't know that.
