Sway bars
I think I've decided to install sway bars as well on my on-going project. Since the front end is up in the air already and everything is out of the way, installation should be a snap. Here's my question...which one, Stillen or Suspension Techniques? The other question....are stabilizer end links worth it? COZ has a special going on right now which would save me $30 on COZ's end links with Stillen's sway bar.

SPL sells their end link for $143 and the Stillen bars for $259.
Stillen sell the bars for $230, but doesn't sell end-links.
Boost-solutions sells Suspension techniques bars for $285.
www.shox.com sells the ST bars for $259.
The Stillen front sway bar is 28mm and the rear is 21mm.
ST's are 28.6mm in front and 20.6mm in the rear.
I've read that the ST bars fit more closely to the underside of the car than the Stillen bars. Not sure if that really makes a difference. It's supposed to give more ground clearance, but that's not something that these cars usually drag.
This is kinda what I'm thinkin.....SPL end links for $143 + Stillen bars for $230 (I think I can get them for less).
Here's a bit more info on sway bars.

Hmm, Im not sure. I would talk to someone who has either the Stillen or ST and see what they say about it. Either that or go with whatever you can get the cheapest. BTW Isn't Boost-Solutions gone now? I heard that George left and took everybody's money.

ok dude.. since I've done research in drifting. I mean alot of research. which by the way I am goign tobe a drifter in the mighty Z. butwhat sway bars do is make your car stiffer. give you the gokart feel with out the rough suspension. but alot more tence. this allowes you to be able to make turns faster without so much fish tail. switch lanes faster without spinign out. U mightwanna consider getting strut bars as well. they are only like 160$ and what these do is make your car even more stiff. so u virtually have almost no chasis flex. and your car should handle extremely well. U should beable to do sweet turns and fast turns with these upgrades. if you wanna complete the package get the not coilovers but stiffer shocks. probabl;y 540's with a positive chamber angle. and so long story short. yes it's very well worth it. go for it. :burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

Rizz....why ST? I had read that article before, but I read it again because that car is un-real. They didn't pick one. I'm kinda leaning towards Stillen because that's what SPL sells. I kinda figured that when it comes to suspension, SPL knows best.
