Sways on...all smiles

[MCM97]

I was finally in town for a weekend to get the front H&R sway thrown on so yesterday I drove all 1.3 miles over to Himself's house and we did it in about an hour and a half. Fairly easy install - especially since Tom did 80% of the work - Thank you sir!
The change in the car is dramatic. The rear GT3 sway and the H&R fron seem to be a very dialed in combination. The car has FAR less body roll in turns and has very mild, controlable oversteer at higer speeds. At low speeds the car seems at almost neutral.
Even if you're not considering lowering your car this is a GREAT upgrade. The front bar was $285 shipped from Redline and I found the rear bar for $100 on Craigslist local so for under $400 this is a very worthwhile upgrade.

TT and C4 user.... H&R all the way! 3 way adjustables.

vendor? price? is it just the front that you guys swap out? i did a stiffer front sway bar on my s2000 way back and noticed a diff.

Check the first post Ben - all three questions you asked are answered in there

[Benjamin Choi]

lol my bad. so is it common to do the front and rear? iirc, it's typically front only by users?

do you have the contact info for redline?

http://www.redline-motorworks.com/ - Andrew is a great guy to deal with.

I found the GT3 locally for $100 and swapped that out thinking it would correct the understeer...it did. And brought me oversteer. IMHO the way to go is an adjustable bar in the rear and the H&R in the front. Seems like the best set up and it came highly recommended by smarter people than me!

don't really care for hair splittage on a street car about over/under steer (that's what mine is plus it's the c4s).

i'll hit up andrew when i'm not lazy.

(If you don't watch Southpark that was the worst post you read all day)

Glad you found the right set up. The H&R is stiff enough without being overkill. IMHO I still think the GT3 front would have been too much.

[delirium]

why not H&R front & back?

[MCM97]

simple answer - I found that GT3 sway locally for $100
