pat - the link you posted, that's for a GE, not a GD, won't fit. Whiteline i think, or they did once list a front sway, but that was only really a good upgrade for the "pre-nerf", as logically would increase understear.
stiffening the rear, or softening the front, would have the same effect, to different exstents. the downside i see with softening the front would be too much weight shift during a quick directional change. depending on the track, that wouldn't been that big a deal, but if there's a tight S bend, you'd move too much weight over the outside wheel in the second part of the turn, and understear.
the rear is acutally a torsion beam setup, which has been setup to act something like a rear sway, but not completely. My old Pug 205 had the same setup, but in that car, the beam acts like the spring in the assembly. Adding the sway would still decrease the amount of roll in the rear of the car, increasing the turn in. the reason why this doesn't REALY exsist is the orginial GD jazz's had too stiff a rear end. they already had a tendancy to overstear, and honda "fixed" this after the general consensis was the jazz was a little "unstable" and "twitchy"
they changed bushes and damper rates.
i can vouch for this, i had a 2003 VTi, like a week after the Aust release, which i traded for my current mid 2005 VTiS 2.5 yrs later. the handling is different, with the 2003 having better turn in.
The king springs i have had fitted to the stock shocks are a definate improvment, i'd sat pretty mucht the perfect street upgrade for the $$$. Now i have a bigger exhuast it does bottom up if i'm not careful, but it's not as bad, (or as low), as some of my other cars.
was hoping i could pull a little more understear out without doing anything drastic, (read expensive). i guess i need to start saving fo 1way.
