What kind of sway bar?

[obdriver6]

About 6 months ago I bough some blue aftermarket sway bars out of a supra in the jy. They were definitely thicker and heavier that the OEM ones and came with poly bushings so I didn't really care what brand they were. Well a couple weeks ago I came across some ST sway bars that were in a supra my dad bought. Well, after looking at the ST bars, I noticed that there's a plate welded at each end for the end links which the blue ones don't have. What I'm wondering is if the blue ones are better that the ST's for not have that plate? or does any one who makes the blue ones?

The blue "unknow" sway bars.

Does Addco do sway bars for our cars? I thought they did blue... I know Tanabe uses red, Whiteline = ?, stock is black, having a hard time thinking of the other company that does sways for our cars.

I think addco's are black or grey, not sure. Whiteline's are gray with yellow bushings. At first I thought it was tokico cause they have the same shade of blue but I later found out that they don't make sway bars. The only brand that makes blue sway bars that I know of is cusco but they don't make them for the MK3 supra and its not the same blue. :dunno:

I have ST's and they are lime green. ST has different colour options though.

I have set of ST bars and they are not the same, they have plates welded at the ends.

Whiteline is silver.

Really no idea, though they match your dampeners quite well...

i know ST make blues ones like those years ago. i had them on my old B13 SER

Someone may have simply had them powdercoated to match their tockico's. They could be ST's.

It's likely they've been modified from the factory color, or... maybe Ford Racing made a part or two for our cars?

Maybe but they don't look like the ST sways bars I have.

^^ I was looking at those and the color matches but Im not sure if they made them for the supra.

Can the members that have aftermarket sway bars other than ST's take pics and post them here?

 

[obdriver6]

Here are the ST sway bars I have.
