Sway Bar decision
Sway Bar decision
Thinking about installing some sway bars for autocrossing, have been looking at Eibach's and Suspension Techniques. Any Pro's or Con's at to which one is better. Or is there a better choice?
Thanks in Advance,
Andre

If you are just street then get the Racing Beat set. If you race track get RB rear and M2 front.
If you are show, get HKS (since they are slightly pricey but the purple looks cool).
I woudn't buy Suspension Technichs if they had a Playboy Bunny blowing me! "Total P.O.S."!!!

Got the Tripoint bar. Adjustable ends, adjustable (i.e., swapable) center bar. Nice construction. Works great at the track.
And one more key thing: when I ordered, they had it in stock and shipped it the same day (unlike another place with a similar bar that kept me waiting for months...)

I believe M2s are adjustable as well but dunno about the same day shipping
Lots of info/pics here:

see notes on mount cracking problem.
In my chart, the RB front is bigger than I show, as Mark V noted .... about 120% stiffer than stock (2.2X). IMO, way too stiff for anything but a smooth track. The Eibach's (PF) are no longer available. I did not include the HKS bars, with front about 70% (1.7X) stiffer IIRC ... neither F or R is adjustable.
I'd suggest the .188" thick TP or M2 front, and RB adjustable rear.
For more comfort, ADDCO front and Mazdaspeed adjustable rear, or mabe 93 oem rear.
Addco front should be available, ~ $110, special order, from JCWhitney.com, or summitracing.com.

Both bars came with urethane mount bushings. The front mounts had grease zerks preinstalled. I installed my own on the rear bar.
