    what about the sway bars what do you recomend hollow or solid ? ill start researching it now so i can tell.them to put an order through or not when they call.


    also koni shocks , i am.hoping to purchase them in a week or two, not sure where to get tjem from sydney for 900 (online 880 but rather buy then get it delivered).

    since they have life warranty, if something happens to them do i usually contact koni directly or the shop i bought them of ?
    I believe solid is always better.

    Personally I have an adjustable Whiteline rear sway bar 24mm that I'm very happy with ^_^

    anyway guys, last night after a 50km drive home i let the car settle for couple min then checked the stick in the light to see rhe shimmering of the oil and it was just under the full marl which is good. today ill check it again while cold then warm it up and wait couple min and check again fingers crossed.
    He mean you cheap out with cheap car can make headache alot.

    Or buy hyundai, never fail, good korean brand.

    2 questions:
    1: when you put the sway bar on, what difference did you notice on overall and handling performance, and
    2: arent you going to put a front sway bar as well ?

    i also am running a 22mm rear swaybar on my EG and have to say its one of the best handling mods imho

    also i have no intention of adding a thicker front bar as i like that when pushed the car will over steer as i find it more manageable

    1:makes the car handle a lot flatter, it's night and day if you put one on with soft springs

    2: sway bars reduce the grip at that end of the car, so if you put a rear and not a front the rear end will lose grip first. Putting a rear and not a front is a good way of reducing turn-in understeer

    It will be more of a neutral feel, especially if you have nice springs/coilovers

    im getting koni yellows and springs made for it in like 2 weeks or so.

    this neutral feeling, would it be like the way its driving now with a bit of understeer but will require higher speeds to understeer?

    hmm not sure to go with the eibach front and back sway bar or just a whiteline back sway bar .

    always thought two is best till now wow..

    1. It feels quite good, it definitely reduces understeer during spirited driving though I'll never feel its full effect because I have no intention of ever tracking my car =P

    2. I think that putting a thicker/solid front sway bar would pretty much cancel the effects of the rear sway thus make making the rear sway redundant, so no front sway (only front sway I'm using is EP3R to clear Toda header)
