Would the size of the rear sway bar affect ride quality?
Hello everybody, I have a curious question about ride quality and rear sway bar..
currently my car is a 98 EK 4-door with a ITR 22mm rear sway bar, just wondering would the bigger sway bar affect ride quality?
or cause harsh ride?
what else could cause a harsh ride?
my setup on my 98 EK 4-door is:
Tein S.tech - 2.0 inch drop front and rear
Koni Red (set to soft)
OEM CTR Front Strut Bar
SRR Lower tie Bar w/ ITR 22mm rear sway bar
195/55 15's
thats about it....as far as I know none of the bushings have been changed ever since I bought this car used about 2 years ago with 80,000 Miles on da clock.

Re: (doughboy_88)
The only way it could cause a harsh ride is if the bushings holding it the the chassis are severly binding. To a lesser extent, the other bushings/mounts may cause it.
The other explaination is if that itr bar has ripped apart your subframe due to the lower-rate springs you're using.
