I WANT my TANABE Sway Bars NoW!!!!

RCZ · 08-06-2009, 02:54 PM

Cusco is usually somewhat mild-medium when it comes to how aggressive their bars are. They make awesome stuff, I had them in one of my STI's and in the race STI I built.

Cusco + KW would be great Shabarivas! Its a safe bet.

Hunter - I like the adjustability of the rear bar in the Hotchkiss setup as I feel my car is pretty neutral-understeer the way its setup right now. I want something that will allow me to dial in a little more oversteer to get the car to rotate. I think the hotchkiss/KW setup or a Cusco/KW setup would work out perfectly. In the end, I will just sell and try something different if I don't like the hotchkiss. Also I definitely need to get rid of that last bit of annoying body roll!

I apologize if I gave the impression that I have them already, I haven't purchased swaybars yet, but I will soon.

Hmm yea - So do the KWs now-a-days come w/ linear or progressive springs?

RCZ · 08-06-2009, 03:22 PM

depends which one you get, the V3's come with Progressive, the Clubsports come with Linears. I have found the V3's to be very good at being comfortable but solid for track use.

KW coilovers are extremely popular in the BMW community for that exact reason. It is a very well rounded coilover that does not sacrifice as much daily driving luxury as one would think; and it is a great, versatile coilover that can easily be dialed in for the track if need be. I personally love KW products; the only reason I choose not to run KW on my car is only because they do not possess the exclusive image that turns me on. A weird reason but as they say...to each their own

I am running Zeal for the moment; my goal is to upgrade to Aragosta one day but I also want to become richer than Bill Gates

Haha I tested some Zeal V6's a while back. Great coilovers, but they tend to be on the stiff side for daily driving

I agree, they are a little stiff for daily driving; especially if you drive through downtown LA

I sent a bunch of PMs to 370ztune about the Cusco sway bars and never got a response back.

RCZ · 08-10-2009, 05:40 PM

^ Im sure there's a good reason for that as Hunter is usually pretty good about returning PM's. Or so I've heard.

I'm sorry about that...I never saw any of your PM's. I just sent you a PM with a breakdown of the Cusco sways since I couldn't find your PM with your initial question. I am truly sorry and I look forward to hearing from you.
