Finally got my swaybar installed!!

Well, I finally got all the parts and got it installed.. The install was pretty easy after I rounded up all the parts. One thing I liked about this swaybar is it came with a backing plate to prevent against tear through.

The bar made the car handle so much nicer.. Feels a lot more stable driving in a straight line, and really smooth in corners. All I can say is this is probably one of my best mods for the money. It didnt give me to much oversteer the car feels nice and balanced.

My suggestion is.. If you dont have a rear swaybar get one..

and yeah.. My cars really dirty... not just the underside of it either.. winter will raise some hell on a car... well that and the fact that I never wash it..:P

Mine gets washed maybe once every 6 weeks during the winter. It doesn't pay to make it look good for just half a day!

Is that an S/T bar?

Looks pretty beefy
How is it when you jerk the car above 40? Can you feel your rear end trying to break loose?

Its the skunk2 swaybar.. 21mm, It doesnt feel like its going to break loose at all, it feels great. It extremely increase traction at the back tires even with really crappy tires. I know it doesnt sound right but it did... I can take a hard corner much faster with crappy tires and they hardly make a sound, unlike before they would yell coming around the same corner at slower speeds. This has got to be my favorite mod yet.

I let a friend of mine drive my car yesterday, He couldnt believe how well it handles and we were hitting some 100 deg+ turns
