Pros:
|
Build quality, performance, adjustability, silent operation.
|
|
Cons:
|
Not the cheapest RSB, yet not really that expensive either.
|
|
It does everything it's supposed to do and doesn't cause any problems. It permits you to tune the amount of over or understeer you want in your car by merely moving bolts to different holes. The rubber bushings that come with the bar work very well. I would recommend using a light coat of grease between the bar and the bushing.
Let's put it this way. I've had three Cusco swaybars on two cars and none of them have made so much as a peep. I beat the crap out of my cars and haven't had a problem yet.

Pros:
|
great fitment
|
|
Cons:
|
may need 2 people to complete the install but this was expected
|
|
The bar did everything it was suppose to in regard to vehicle contol and understeer/oversteer.
Just grease the bushings, install and go!

Have a family member or friend looking to refinance or purchase? Your referral on a closed lead will not go unnoticed. *PM me for details* I’ll even pay for their appraisal and credit report fees out of my pocket at the close of escrow.

Pros:
|
nice quality. Adjustable to suit driving style.
|
|
Cons:
|
heavier than stock because it's thicker
|
|
I have it on the middle setting w/ stock endlinks and it's great. Couldn't imagine driving without it.
the car corners better with the new RSB now.

Pros:
|
Cusco brand name
|
|
Cons:
|
Japanese instructions, slipping bushing
|
|
On the STi, the Cusco rear adjustable swaybar slides side to side in the bushing and causes knocking on the track. Very annoying.

Some people are like slinkies... They are not really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.

Great product. Fitment was excellent and really helps the car with the turns. Make sure you put grease on the bushing as you\'ll hear creaks. It drove me crazy after awhile.

Pros:

Great adjustability, high quality

|
Cons:

Somewhat costly

Definitely well worth it in the rear to eliminate understeer or set up for drift. Easy to install and high quality.

Just make sure to upgrade your endlinks at the same time. This bar will flip on stock endlinks and bend them.

This is the only JDM product I have on my car at the moment and I love it because it serves a major purpose in the suspension upgrades. I recommend the endlinks get upgraded at the same time.

Pros:
|
Definitly decreases understeer aspect of the Impreza
|
|
Cons:
|
Have to purchase new endlinks for total upgrade.
|
|
I was very please with my purchase of this swaybar, I also purchased the 21mm front sway bar and I get very little understeer now and more oversteer for a more enjoyable driving experience. The bushings could have been polyurethane, but Cusco opted for the cheaper reinforced rubber ones, I keep wondering why?
