How does the TRD vs the Whiteline RSB compare in performance? Is there a change in opinion if the TRD is going for about $100 USD?

you will notice it more the stiffer it is, not sure of the diameter of the whiteline, but the TRD one I thought was good

I was looking on Ebay, but then my cousin said he found a cheaper shop in his San Diego area, about $100 USD, and he'll ship it free to me. That's just for the TRD, not the Whiteline.

I asked him to check how many there are incase any of you wanted one. The shop is only open M-F, so I'll let you know then.

TRD RSB > Whiteline RSB

TRD can be stiffer of looser. Whiteline is one setting only

The TRD has the stock settin' and the WhiteLine has only 1 settin'.
But i think the TRD will have the stiffer settin' than the WhiteLine.

rsb

Postby Sentinel » Sun Feb 12, 2006 1:14 pm

I have a TRD RSB and am happy with it, it definately took a lot of the boaty feeling out of the stock suspension (I got it before the Tokico/Eibach upgrade)

However: The track setting on the TRD RSB seems just a bit too stiff: The car wants to oversteer when pushed too hard, and I'd prefer a more neutral cornering characteristic. Is there anyone out there with a Whiteline RSB that can tell us of the over/under steer characteristics of their car?

Maybe I just hate FWD... hitting the gas when the tail is about to come out seems counter-intuitive, but I guess that's the diff between FWD & RWD.

Ive had both whiteline and trd rsb's.... currently i have trd

i think the whiteline rsb is thicker, but trd has two settings... on the trd, no one cares for the street setting so its just like a no-settling deal....

i say either one is fine and does its job.... theres not much of a major difference

The diameter of the trd is either 21 or 22 on the stiff setting.
The whiteline is 21 and oem is 20. So trd is the best.
