I've got a 1G with aftermarket exhaust - APEX'I N1. Want to put on a bigger rear sway bar - either RM or Suspension Techniques.

The RM is slightly smaller, but comes with the rear endlink bushings & new front sway bar bushings. The Suspension Techniques bar is slightly bigger but I can't tell if it comes with all those bushings, too. Also, have heard it doesn't fit as well with larger exhaust, but this is possibly only in reference to 2G's? :confused:

I'm not even sure I'd notice the difference in stiffness 1/16" would make anyhow & could just go with the RM bar since I know it fits & has all the bushings.

Anyone with a 1G & 3" exhaust using the Suspension Techniques bar? I can get this 1 quite a bit cheaper, so that's a factor, too.

Thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

I previosly asked these questions to DiamondStarMotorsport, and they told me that the suspension techniques come with them so i would get them and from personal experience go with DSMotorsport very nice and great quality. But it might take a lil longer ecause its a special order item.

Thanks for the info. :thumb: I checked out their site. Still not sure if the ST bar will fit with the exhaust - sent them an E-mail to see what they think...
