If I can dig it out I will post - that really leaves uprated shox/springs at the rear as options, but currently I quite like the balance as it is noting I have uprated front coil-overs, normal ride height, the 27mm sway bar and run 17s. I guess we should also make mention that many forum folk have gone for more than significant changes to thier running gear already by running with 19s and 20s, lowered springs etc but the T's suspension was never calibrated for such changes of input and response, therefore what suits one car may turn out to be quite inappropiate on another.Suck it and see is the answer, but care should be taken in accepting others' recommendations on equipment solutions as tacit....Dingah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was from Whiteline and somewhere else - so caution folks.Dingah←I'm looking to replace the front swaybar too. My car is stock. So I'd take it that a front swaybar on it's own will do the job - that is without lowering the vehicle or changing shocks/springs. Can someone please advise.Also, what if I decide to lower the vehicle at a later date? Would this type of swaybar cause any problems?Thanks.

Swaybar mod is compatible physically.Dingah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
