Cobb Stage 2 suspension package

Does anyone have this package? Would it be better to piece it out?

I like the Cobb swaybars. If you're planning on autocrossing or tracking your car though, I might go for different springs.

I've got tein flex coilovers on my 05 sti and was wondering if I should get both front and rear sways or just go with the rear? I heard the front sway dosent do much but the rear makes a huge difference.

you will feel a dramatic dif. from the rear. not so much the front, but the front does help. So to answer your question... depends

I have both front and rear whiteline sways on my 2002 wrx and love'em.

I would say if money is an issue

Rear whiteline sway bar
Rear whiteline endlinks


Don't put on a rear swaybar without getting beefier endlinks. Stock ones will break under heavy load with a bigger bar.

I have only tried whiteline so I am very biased and have nothing to compare with so my info is strictly off of my impressions with whiteline only

I would def. get whiteline again without trying another brand. All of my friends have purchased whiteline before and never looked back.


Goodluck with whatever you get!



and yes, you will be tearing through those turns.

We've used all of the above....Whiteline, Cusco, and Cobb.

Honestly they're all are great. We first pick the size we want and go from there....most of the time it ends up being Whiteline based on availability and we usually run sizes that Whiteline uses. They just have more sizes and the adjustability is greater.

The Cobb bars are great for track cars running coilovers, meaning their sizes work well when running stiffer spring rates. Plus they're light.

Cusco's are a nice "mild" bar, and a great bar for the price.

Either the Cobb swaybars front and rear or Whiteline 27mm front/24mm rear.

Get the Whitelines for more improvement in auto-x.
