Default suspension ?

Check it out- i have searched trying to find a thread that tells exactly WHAT swaybars do. I can understand from 'contex clues' but...i dont know if they are right. I want to be sure.
I already have coil overs and camber kit, i want better grip on the road (i dont mean tires) what would this do...how would it help? sorry for a dumb question....but im tired of not asking because i dont feel like having people hound my ***.... hit me up

From my understanding, it helps keep the car level around turns. When weight increases on one side, the swaybar helps push the side without weight to the ground. Simply put, it helps keep the car from going on three wheels. And the more tires you have making good contact, the better traction you will have.

Anyway, thats how I understood it. Not sure if I'm right, but that has always made sense to me.

Depends on what you get. I got leftovers from my friend with a GSR for free, and bought a good enlink and a broken endlink for $10. Welded the broken endlink and I had my swaybar setup for $10
A lot of people opt for the type-r, and with the bushing kit can run around $150 I think. Search around.. a lot of threads with writeups on swaybars.
