got sway bars?

[UskoColerB]

hey guys,
i just installed some konis and eibachs on my 95 eclipse rs. i wanna decrease body roll, so i thinking about putting on some sway bars. do u guys have any comments about particular sway bars. are there big differences in different brands? which brand would you recommend. also, is there anything else i can do to reduce body roll?

i was talking to my mechanic the other day and he said that strut bars are all for looks and that they dont improve suspension at all. any truth in that?

I have the RMSDM front and rear sway bars on my GSX. Before I bought them I was told its basically the most neutralizing set-up available for the DSMs. Strut bars aren't going to be 100% worthless, but you won't notice any difference probably.

I've bought sway bars from suspension techniques and have been happy with them. As far as strut bars go you won't notice as much as a difference with them as you will the swaybars but they help tie everything together. Strut bars can be added when you have extra cash or when your suspension has everything else done. When buying a strut bar you don't have to get the most expensive brand name bar just make sure it is made well and has some adjustability.

Strut bars help. Plus they look nice and arent expensive (Hey, you cant rule that out!) I mean, look at it this way. All the race cars have em, they arent there because they dont do anything at all.
