  • rear swaybar

    Have a couple of questions:

    1: I know that there is a factory installed sway bar on my car. do you have to remove it when installing aftermarket sway bar or leave it in place..

    2: what would be the advantage of using adjustable swaybar endlinks or fixed.

    3: Is there a real differance between the 25 and 28 mm rear swaybar, and if so which would be the better choice. I know that adding a rear sway will take some of the body roll out of the car, I don't want to make the rear too harsh or make the rear to lite as my wife drives this car and i would want her to spin, as she drives pretty hard..

    car only has 15000km on it so changing the suspensionis out of the question till it's off warranty
    Is the struts available through the dealer any good?

    Any input would be appreiciated

    you have a factory front swaybar installed.. unless you drop you car more than 2" you don't have to worry about it

    the rear one i guess is pure gold according to well everyone

        Ditto on the suspension setup. I can't say the fiance likes it as much, because I spend more time driving the car now!

        go 28mm. Adjustable end links are nice because they allow you to 'balance' the car to your personal preferences. At full stiff setting, the back end will kick out when pushed hard, but will give minimal understeer. At full soft, it will be a big improvement over stock, but still very predictable, even in the winter. I've moved mine from full soft, to the mid setting. I will most likely give the stiffest setting a try this spring to see how I like it.
