went full stiff on my rear sway and the car handles even better. i don't know why keeping the stocker or ditching the rear is touted as being good. maybe the car is too squirrelly for some


I've got a set of Hotchkis bars and have no complaints. I think the people claiming the car ends up too squirrely with a big rear bar are running a completely different suspension setup. If you've got stiff coilovers, the addition of a big rear bar may make it a bit too tail happy. The springs I'm on aren't that much stiffer than stock, so the big bar balances everything out nicely. You get the body roll reduction of a much stiffer spring, but only feel the tradeoff when you hit a bump off-center. To me, I'd prefer too much bar and not enough spring for something I drive everyday. For a track slut, I'd go with a much stiffer spring/damper combo, and add just enough bar to balance things out.
