I can't believe i haven't upgraded my stock sway bars.



I have eibach springs, so i was thinking of getting some eibachs sway bars but they cuts almost 300 but these things are probably tuned to go right with the springs.



My other choice was Suspension technigues at about 280.



The last choice was the racing beat sway bars set only 237 for both.



Should i **** it and go with racing beat?

While I like to stay with one company for the suspension, a friend of mine does have the RB bars on his TII and he loves them. I havent heard much about the other two.

 

i have rb on mine and I love them they are great

 

ST bars on mine and I love them. Got them for about $235 from Summit (once they finally came in off of backorder).

 

you know me. i love racing beat products. never had a complaint!!!!

 

They also have the suspension techniques set at optauto.com for $218.



I was wondering just for an autocross set up, if it would make sense to get an RB front bar and leave the rear bar stock to counter oversteer. Does anyone run this type of set up? Does it make sense for autocross?



I'm thinking back to my FWD days when we removed the front bar entirely and put a thick rear bar on... I was thinking the opposite for the RX-7.

 

Interesting setup idea for autocrossing.

 

Turborotor, did you decide what sway bars you are going with yet? I'm in the same boat. I have Eibach pro-kits so I was thinking of the Eibach sway bar kit too. Also, when looking at the pics, I think the Eibach kit already comes with adjustable endlinks with urethane bushings. The RB bars don't come with endlinks.... the endlinks would be another $130.



I'm debating between the RB bars which I found for $190 at Modacar.com or the Eibach bars which I found for $279 at wholesalehyperformance.com or my original idea of just an RB front bar, stock rear bar, and adjustable front and rear endlinks.

 

In autocross you want the car to lean slightly towards oversteer. To my knowledge a larger front bar with no upgrade for the rear would just increase the FCs understeering nature.

 

I understand your point but I was also thinking since I have a lightened base S4 and still have the stock open diff, that I wanted to go with a smaller bar in the rear to allow for more roll to try and keep both rear wheels planted all the time.... does that make sense? I've been researching this and a lot of seasoned autocrossers actually have several different bars on hand for each track.



I think I'm just going to go with the RB bars for $190 (can't beat that) and I'll get the RB endlinks later on. My manual steering rack just showed up and I'm picking up the Energy Suspension complete bushing kit this week too so I can do everything in the front at once including the ball joint and tie rod end bushings.
