Must be smaller than 19mm since after market ones are 19mm. However, I'm sure someone can give you a specific answer.

Whoa, I guess I neglected the word front. LOL! Sorry about that. My post was in reference to the REAR sway bar. Sorry again.

TRD rear sway bar is 19mm.
Ultra Racing I carry comes 19mm or 23mm Stock front sway bar is either 22m or 23mm. I carry AOE which is 24mm.

The addition of a rear anti-sway bar to the Yaris makes a huge difference in handling and stability. DO IT!

if you autocross, avoid a larger front swaybar.

Yes, a larger front sway bar on a fwd will induce more understeer, correct?

on high speed courses this should not be a problem though, as momentum carries you thru the "front wheel lift" portions of the corner (as long as you know how to drive)

so you think if you had an LSD that a bigger front rear bar would help?
the last track i went to, CMP, had more low speed corners. REALLY needed an LSD
