Default Tanabe sway bars

I was wondering if anyone has had them or used them. Im curious, cause everyone talks about neuspeed and ST; but noone mentions tanabe for sway bars. Any reason for this? Anyone heard about them or used them?

i had them on my 95 lude even before they were available at shops. kinda like being sponsored... got 'em from SIGNAL auto if Torranca, CA.
they were tanabe sustec bars. very very good. i felt quite a difference after they were installed. tanabe will get my vote over neuspeed and ST any day.

I think Ill try them out. We all new ST is the cheapest - but price and quality go together, and everyone who has a neuspeed likes it better.

Now for tanabe, they run about $225 each. So it's cheaper than the neuspeed rear, but as a set their close in price (neuspeed front is like $175). For some reason peple dont know about them, but I know in general tanabe make some damn fine suspension parts.

So now I was wondering how a neuspeed rear bar only (designed for just the rear bar), would compete with a tanabe rear bar only? Also, would a tanabe rear function well with a neuspeed front (neuspeed front is like $50-75 cheaper); or are these only designed to work in sets? I also know the neuspeed front bar is around 2mm thinner; or ~10%, so I can see that having it's benefits.

So what do you think?

well it all depends on what you expect from your car's cornering capabilities and also on your driving style. i would go for both of the same kind as they will balance it out better. you'll be happy with tanabe. give it shot.
