Default What sway bars do you have?

After installing coilover, i am about to upgrade the sway bars.

Wonder do you guys just upgraded the rear or both front and rear?

And what brand of sway bars do you have on your car now, and how you like them? For autoX or Track or daily usage.

Thank you for any inputs in advance~

Cusco makes one too, I traded my for a stock one.
Sway bars dont make your corner better, it depends on your setup and your driving style... My car came with a cusco one... And I didnt like it so I traded it for a stock one.

Just upgrade the bushings on the stock setup and be done with it.

I suppose if you wanted to, you could get the ones from Swift. I think their main selling point is that they are lighter than stock.

there's also the ASR 32mm hollow sway bar, never really found any good feedback from on track experience with it though, supposedly it's like the Mugen 26

Not that you fit into this category personally, but neither of those bars are for a noob who doesn't know wtf he's doing behind a wheel.

x10 having a rear end that comes out very violently is not the best confidence building technique :-O

If you have an ITR, why are you running the reinforcement brace? That brace is for non ITR's.

The ASR 32mm hollow race kit, that is "specifically" made for the ITR, Actually comes with the subframe reinforcement. That's how it came in the package. That's how I'm going to install it tonight. Besides even if I don't need it what is wrong with a little bit of dress up for the rear end.

Have currently

Stock front
Mugen rear (26mm) And it's still not enough rotation for me I'll be trying to dial in more via suspension alignment/dampening settings maybe tire

Have had the JDM rear and stock.

A good start is the JDM 23mm. Doesn't sound like much being only a 1mm difference, but if you run the numbers (or search here) it's actually quite a bit of difference.
