Front and Rear Sway Bar Sizes for MY00 2.5RS
from my understanding the stock sway bar sizes for my car are 19 mm in the front and 13 mm in the rear...
i'm looking to buy an aftermarket rear sway bar, but i'm not sure which size to purchase...
the sti is running 19 mm in front and 20 mm in the rear...has anybody tried this sizing on a MY00 2.5 RS? if so how has it effected the understeer?
also, does anybody know what the are the 3 sizes you can switch between for the Perrin adjustable rear sway bar?
thanks for the info...

I have stock front and FHI 20mm rear with Whiteline KLC26 endlinks on my '01 RS. I think the setup is perfect for street and track use, but I am installing a whiteline adjustable for autocross, where rotation is more important. Also, take your alignment into account to control how much over/understeer you have. I have kind of a crazy setup right now- 1.6 degrees of camber up front, 0 toe, and 2.5 degrees camber in the rear with 1/16th toe out. Makes the car incredibly stable on the racetrack at high speeds without creating resistance on turn-in. Like I said though, for autocross, I'm going to need a bigger RSB to get the rear to step out at lower speeds.
