Hey everybody, I wanted to find out what front sway bars are available for the car because I only see talk about rear sway bars. The reason for it is because I want to hear people's experiences with BOTH rear and front sway bar changes. Putting on the rear sway bar I hear will naturally cut out that understeer, but I am certain it will add a noticeable amount of oversteer. While this is all right for most cases and it must feel great, I don't want to experience snap oversteer on the high speed curves if I happen to lift off the throttle. It seems a complementary front sway bar upgrade should be around. If anybody has tuned the bars, I wanna hear what combination truly comes out a winner, giving the least amount of understeer and not excessive oversteer, (almost) neutral. If this helps: I don't go to autocrosses but my driving involves many, many miles of challenging and breathtaking canyons. I really love them

Thank's in advance!

 

Randy just got the H-Sport bars and I believe as soon as he can dig out from under the snow he'll run them through the paces and let us know what he thinks. I'm sure they will work well as Hotchkis builds some good stuff.

 

rrmixn is right - I have installed the bars, but haven't been able to drive them all that much yet.

As a side note, with just the rear bar, there isn't snap oversteer with a normal modulation of throttle. It works abcolutely perfect. It will be interesting to see the difference with a front and rear sway - especially since the effective rate of the H-Sport is much smaller than the Madness or RDR bars. I'll let you know!

The finish and fit of the H-Sport products are excellent. We'll see how they work next week. I too expect good things from Hotchkis.

Excellent!!! Thank for the information guys. 8 :smile:

When you get to take it to some twisties next time, please try to note the cons of the change, i know it's usually hard to do when you have something new. You know what I mean
