Just bought some polyurethane bushings so I can install these. Hope I can get them installed this week.
Think I'm getting a good deal compared to the whitelines. These look to be much beefier as well. I'm only 120 bucks in, compared to 450 for the whitelines. Win |

If they're OEM, isn't your car already equipped with those? Are those the Nismo sway bars. I don't know if those are even different from stock.

Those are likely tubular, so they're not really stiffer than the Whitelines, but that's kinda irrelevant. For that money, you're better off, unless you're really trying to tune the car's dynamic response on the track and know what you want.

Type of steel, how it was bent, at what temperature, if it was heat treated, and so on dictates stiffer or softer Tubular tubing can be just as stiff as solid, the only disadvantage it has is that if you scrape it, you're more prone to damaging the bar or even shaving a sidewall off
