Rear Sway Bar

Has anyone switched from the GT3 Rear Sway to the H&R and found a difference?

The GT3 sway is hollow and lighter, works well for me. Found no reason to switch?

Mine is on the stiffest setting, I started there because of the massive understeer I was getting (I am a pretty aggressive driver) I went from crazy understeer to manageable oversteer but my rear tire pressures were too low which contributed to the oversteer. Since then I have got the pressures right and the car feels great, no push at all, there is still some push on the middle setting from what I've experienced.

Middle, just a tad of oversteer for my setup, just how I like it.

There are several very good drivers out there that are completely satisfied with the GT3 bars. If you didn't have either one and you weren't going to do any major changes to your suspension geometry, then I think the H&Rs are best suited for the weight of the TT. However, if you already have the GT3 bars, the money could be much better spent on some other mod. If you have it cranked up all the way and it's still not doing the trick, my hunch is that there is something else that could/should be done to fix your concern.

Where did you all pick up your sways and how much? I am thinking of doing this mod pretty soon...easy but very effective.

Hey Mike! I got mine from Dan @ Vivid for 234.99 H&R 24mm rear sway bars.
They made a big difference with the stock suspension.
