Where do I can i find a rear swaybar?
I've decided to get a rear swaybar... more accurately, I'm finally going to actually get one! Anyway, I'm debating exactly what size, 18/19/20 or 18/20/22, opinions please? Also where do I get one, I've found 20-22-24 and some other sizes but I can't seem to find one of these two online, I've been searching for weeks. I'm pretty bad at this stuff, Thank you.
Ok, maybe half of my problem with finding them is I'm reading it wrong. If the site says its a 22mm Rear (3-way Adjustable) does that mean it goes up from 22 like 22-24-26 or 22-23-24 or down from 22 as in 22-21-20 or 22-20-18? and how can you tell or do you simply have to contact them and ask? Thanx

Just installed whiteline sway bars and hardened steel end links on my 2000 rs, made a huge difference. Front is a set 20mm and the rear is an adjustable 20-24 mm, the actual size of the bar is 22mm, so to answer your question there is a step higher and a step lower on adjustable bars. My car rides so much better doesnt roll at all, my dad said that it rides like is 2003 acura tl type s.
O, ok, so a 22 mm adjustable could either be 20-24 or 21-23 or do they all go in increments of 2? Thanx for the reply, very fun. And one more q. Does your car now have a lot of oversteer, or is it on the edge, I'm not very experienced (yet) so am worried about going to big? This is why i wanted the 18-22 or 18-20, since I don't want it to be dangerous, just better, and adjustable so I could drive it higher at autox. Thanx

I am pretty sure that the sway bars only go in increments of 2mm, or at least that is what I gathered before I did my research. As far as oversteer is concerned I havent really noticed a problem, only when I am doing 3 times the posted speed around a turn does it want to kick out a little. I guess if it was a problem I could always set the rear lighter too, that is the beauty of ajustment. Def do it man, huge difference, not only in handiling but in the entire way the car feels, rides so much better!!!
Ok to revive the thread! Can someone give me a link to a 18-20mm rear adjustable swaybar (or its equivalent hollow one, but I don't have a clue how they compare) that'l fit a gc8 bodystyle (99OBS)?
I've looked and emailed a few places but just cannot find a adjustable swaybar like this, that fits the 99 OBS. I thought it was the same as the wrx, but gruppe-s says that I need a GC8 bodystyle one because the wrx's wont work. Is this true?
Thank you
