Whiteline Sway Bars are AMAZING

Zoren 370 · 05-03-2013, 08:30 PM

I would definitely recommend the whitelines.
I do have swift springs and complained how much it bounce in the rear
but after installing the whiteline with setting of soft in front and medium in the rears its basically gone very stable with no roll at all even on sharp curves at 80mph.

Never had so much fun until now.

IMO suspension up grades should be of prime consideration above all other mods.

was thinking koni yellow's + swaybars or just swaybars for me... i kinda like the stock setup for street.

I have lowered the car 21mm with replacement tyres (F = 245/40R18 and R = 275/35R18 Dunlop Direzza - ride height now 690mm front and back - to top of wheelarch from the ground), but still use OEM springs and dampers.

So standard OEM suspension apart from change in bars - that is it.

i suppose the bushings wont pop out from the clamps because the bushings themselves are keyed, but just wondering.

here's the driver side bushing looking at it from the engine bay (top). does yours look like this? the bushing is slightly pushed towards the center of the car. this is the same way on the passenger side.

Kenchan, this has happened to me and the tab that holds the bushing from sliding out permanently broke off after a spirited run. The whole bushing slid out of the bracket and caused the sway bar to hit the brace area on every bump. I didn't have any spare bushings so I reversed the bushing so that the unbroken tab was on the outside and put it back on. Will be contacting whiteline to see if I can get any replacements but yeah.....

Bushing in question is front-driver. The car has seen about 6-7 autocrosses as well.

Luckly my whitelines came with the metal locks front and rear.

Why don't you guys just buy sway bars with the welded on sleeves?
