It's definitely best to auto-x the car at least a couple of times on the stock sway bars so that you have a good feel of what it is going to do. It gets a lot more responsive with the stiffer bars which means quicker weight transfer, but also means that you have to be quicker to keep up with it. |

One of these days someone is going to have to explain to me the difference between Over-/under-steer. I myself don't track, and don't know much about it. But sway bars/suspension is something I would like to upgrade.

When a car oversteers the rear end looses traction and the car starts to spin. Basically understeers is when you hit the wall with the front of your car and oversteer is when you hit it with the back.

Damn car was so loose I backed it into the fence! Or, Damn car was so tight I plowed like a dumptruck straight into the fence! I think I'm going to go with the Stillen sways since the car is primarily a DD. And they are pretty and red.
