Mike,
Got the sway bars installed today. Frt & bck set to the softest settings. I could feel the difference coming out of the garage! Initial feedback is that the car feel a lot more "seatted" around highway exist or even when changing lanes!

Fitting with the FI CBE is no issue at all.

The endlinks looked like a "generic" product with lost of adjustments avail. I set it up same as OEM. Anyway, they are a big improvment over the stock ones...
Will probably move into the medium rear setting before my next track day.
I haven't weighted them but they are around 35% heavier than stocks.

To those running the Whitelines, did anybody install the lateral locks?

I use them on the front, but not the rear.

why not the rear? and did you put these on after the fact, or do them at install time? there isn't much information out there on these.

The rears are an option. They come with a small bushing with a retainer clip to use as a stop/lock. The fronts come with locks but they are in a raw finish (not anodized). I installed everything at the same time.

ok, what i'm taking from it, they are an optional piece. i'll go ahead and pick up a set for fr/r just to be on the safe side.

thank you for clarifying (sent some rep your way) :tiphat:

You don't need to get the locks for the front unless you want the anodized colour. The front swaybar comes with silver coloured locks.

Thanks for the rep :tiphat:

I did, and it was a mistake... at least if your track the car. During tracking the front sb are moving way too much and the locks actually pop the bushings out :icon14:.
Does anybody knows what they're for anyway?

They keep the bar from shifting lateraly...so u will want to run them.

Then, i must have done something wrong... Are they installed on the outer or inner side and what is the required spce (if any) between the bushings and the locks? Thx

Dwnshift 05-16-2012 08:12 PM

Typically they would be installed on the inside and up close to the bushings.
Make sure your sway bar bushing bracket bolts are torqued to their proper specs.
I'm not familiar with the Whiteline bars... But when I was w 350evo we had those same exact locks included with our sway bars. Again.... Double check those brackets and how the bushings sit in them.

I just installed a set of Stillen bars, but have yet to hit the track, on the street I didn't feel much difference between them and stock (Set front to midle and Rear to Soft)

I was reading thru this thread and see most of you running whiteline bars are doing Soft Front and middle rear, I want to run my bars as close to this specs as possible, using this chart, what would be the equivalent or closest setup on the Stillen Bars??

I had the hotchkis swaybars on my 350z. On bad roads it made a "knickknack"-noise. After I changed the oem endlinks to aftermarket sport endlinks the problems was fixed.

Will I have this problem with the whiteline sways on my 370z also?

Thank you!
