I WANT my TANABE Sway Bars NoW!!!!

The hotchkis are a little bit thicker/stiffer/aggressive. Which may be better or may not be depending on who you ask.

Yeah, Neither is "better", just different. After determining that the Z needs very little assist here on stock springs, I elected to go Stillen. Perfect streetable balance of comfort and performance. With Eibachs, which have a lower initial spring rate, the Hotchkiss may be the preferred choice. Ultimately it's all about balance..

I ono bout Stillens.... IMO i think their products looks like it got shat out by a metal giant. It almost look as if it was crudely built and slapped together...

i.e the Stillen GTR exhaust looks like junk IMO

Hotchkiss maybe my 2nd choice if those bastards at tanabe keeps putting this crap on hold
