NOW AVAILABLE
Adjustable sway bars for the NISSAN 370Z

The front sway bar features a solid 33mm adjustable set up, whilst the rear sway bar boasts 24mm (BNR37Z) in diameter. Both offer 2 points of adjustment allowing their stiffness to be altered by increasing or reducing the length of the lever arms.

i dont care if its stiff, just want it to perform better than the hotchkis. i dont really want to run -2.5 daily just to keep the car from pushing. even with the rear on the stiffest setting, the car has so much understeer its pisses me off to drive it.

Whiteline / cusco make awesome sways - They have been used in the subie / evo community for ages. If I were to guess - i would place them leagues ahead of the stillen / hotchkis

This is kinda weird coming from you. OK so take the front bar off and put the stock one back on. Or change your alignment, maybe a little toe out in the rear. There are several ways to help change the bias of the car that don't involve swaybar adjustments.

I like that there is no body roll. Before the sways, the car handled well, but had significant roll. When I added the sways, it destroyed all the front rear balance and created understeer. I played with the rear which is adjustable, but to no avail.

I am tempted to go back to stock, but rather have a front sway that is either less stiff in the front, or better balanced with the rear. I've tried adjusting damping, didn't help either. Same with air pressure changes...

I'd prefer to try something new rather than crank up the front camber since the car is also my daily ( not to mention I don't feel comfortable with the options for adjusting front camber that are out at this time)


Perhaps it works for some, it just doesn't with my current set up, that's all.
