when i was having lexus replace the cr@p oil they put in my car today, i saw that my car (gs300) already has front and rear sway bars installed??

is this standard?

 

yeah, it's nothing new. older generations all have it. my gs400 did, sc430 did. is300 did

just that a lot of people change them to thicker ones

 

"Almost" ALL cars have sway bars, at least in the front.

 

lol learn something new everyday.......

 

It's only a matter of time that larger aftermarket sways will be offered for the GS.

 

in fact i am surprised there is still nothing for the 3gs yet (i don't know about 2is). maybe in japan it's more common to have APSSS?

 

please! The gs rolls like a 80's cadillac. It needs huge swy bars. I think sway bar mods are the best bec they give less rol without any negatives of lowering you car. Cant wait for that mod. My prev car had a fully modified suspension so I am used to track type performance , not touring performance

 

Huge sway bars doesn't necessarily mean the best performance. It's all about balance and maximum tire contact patch to the road.

 

correct, having larger bars usually help, but making it thicker and thicker won't make it better and better. otherwise, why not just weld the left and right together. it's all about balance, which i think the gs is doing a pretty good job (though the lean).

also, having larger and larger bars, the ride will start to suffer
