words for those who got TRD RSB and trd springs installed

its normally the other way around, having the RSB complementing the lowering.

however in your case, you should be able to feel more road hugging.

Do you have the SE Sport? No bodyroll is a bit hard to believe unless you have a Porsche 911. :lol: With the SLE, the RSB gives less bodyroll but not no bodyroll. Wondering if the SE Sport shows more change with the RSB than the SLE.

um, i'm expert in RSB and suspension stuff,
but from what i have known,
u should upgrade ur RSB only after u upgraded spring/suspension.
a "hard" RSB can mess up ur suspension if ur suspension can't handle the pressure exert from RSB...

so, suggest u to upgrade ur spring or lower ur RSB profile to street level, if u have TRD RSB.

I did the same thing. I installed the TRD front strut tower brace and TRD rear sway bar and the handling is excellent, comparatively. If you really push it, you can definitely find the edge, though.

As flat as the SE Sport V6 is in the corners now, though, the lowering springs should really tighten up the ride. I plan to upgrade in the late summer as well, if the budget holds up. The springs aren't expensive but getting a shop to do it is.
