Default Suspension Techniques Sway Bars!!

I did a little searching but didn't find too much... But anyways I'm looking at getting after market Sway Bars for my 91 Si and just figured I'd ask what everybody's opinions where on which brand to go with and if i should get both or just the rear. I found the ST 7/8" rear bar and all the hardware to install it for $140 and thought it wasn't bad at all. Thanks in advance for any and all input!!

Just the rear. Front sways are a waste of time and money. I put on an ST rear, feels great and I only have it in the mid setting. Need to find me an HX front now.

wow... looks good! yeah I already have the energy suspension bushings and end links for the front sway and I figured that would be good enough.

You can barely make out the huge green ST bar under there, but overall I'm very pleased with it. Kind of overkill for the street, but the rear end rotates very nicely over the stock Si sway. Just get some front/rear spring rates to match

well right now I have Megan racing sleeve overs with KYB GR-2's... seems decent to me just a little too much body roll yet... what setting do you have your ST sway at? and how is it?

Full hard for the sway with ksport full coilovers and OTS rates (old setup). Probably going with Koni Yellow/GC at 450F/500R this time around with the same sway

When I had it on full hard with the ksports I'll be honest...it felt like crazy overkill for the street. I was 3-wheeling around most corners/dips. I didn't really mind because my car wasn't a daily, but I could see how it'd get annoying after a few weeks. My car is caged too if that makes a difference.
