Default 6th gen anti roll bars ... help me please..

hi!
i'm helping a friend that have a V6 4 door 00 accord ..
and he is gonna sell it as soon as the new accord gets in..and he plan to use it to learn race driving ( solo 2 events ) with me on next summer

so we don't wanna go play into springs/shocks cause it'll be too time consuming and a lot of $$ for nothing..

so we plan on limiting the roll on his car with really stiff anti roll bars ( sway bars) ..

so i need to know all the company that makes theese bars for his car..
and if there are any adjustable would be even better ( adjustable for rear at least )

thank you..

yes they do......www.nopi.com
only go for the rear bar though, a front sway will make the car understeer very bad. a lot of autocrossers actually disconnect their front sway bars.

well, i have both front and rear ST sway bars and inducing oversteer isn't all too difficult...

Using both the rear and front ST bars will offer a more neutral handling vehicle over just using the rear bar. Changing just the rear bar brings you to the reduced understeer side of neutral which is helpful for rotation at the autox and track, but not necessary (maybe even unsafe for psycho drivers) for public roads.

i guess where i see having too stiff of a rear sway bar being unsafe is that there are too many impurities on the road... just taking a corner hard and hitting an unexpected bump or dip in the turn will send your rear end out... this is not a fun experience...
