Need Sway-bar options...

Postby CJ_Boxster » Fri Jan 25, 2008 6:20 pm

I just finished installing my new struts and a set of Eibach springs (Pro-kit)...

Even with the Eibach springs the ride is a hell of alot better than my stock setup which had 122k miles on it. Now my wheels "walk" over bumps in the road rather than skip off the bumps... I can feel the stiffness of the Eibachs over larger bumps and when i turn the car is noticably flatter (less body roll) than when compaired to the old stock suspension.

However, I'd like there to be less body roll. I have a MY97 Boxster non-S. What options are there as far as Sway-Bars? Incase you ask, I'd like to track the car eventually, so i wouldnt mind a really stiff sway bar. Maybe Insite could help since i know he basically lives on an autocross track.

Thanks in advance!

Well even though no one had any input on this, i decided to go with a GT3RS front sway bar and an H&R rear sway bar... Ill have to buy adjustible Sway-bar links to make the GT3RS sway fit but luckily i know someone that makes them.
