anyone use eibach sway bars?
im thinking of using the eibach swaybar kit to tighten up the handling in my GT,
right now im running eibach sportsline springs on all four, about to put in tokico illumina adjustable struts, and camber caster plates from MM, i was also considering adding the eibach swaybars to really tighten everything up... anyone use these or have any opinions on them?

Add a panhard bar and rear LCAs. That will help tame the rear. If you want to do the entire car get a handling pckg from MM or Griggs. You'll be happily surprised.
Sway bars, shocks, struts and springs are the first step. |

here we go again, lol originally i wanted to but MM max grip package, which is 4500 and comes with everything for suspension and chasis, and then i was turned away into things that are more cheap, for now i was thinking jsut doing my struts,springs,swaybars,control arms, and camber caster plates, everntually i want to change the fron k member and a arms and do a coilover conversion, but im still searching for a good kit for the front, people on this forum were saying that the MM stuff is heavy and i should go with AJE instead,

Jason from Maximum Motorsports has said that all the control arms , front and rear need to be upgraded and add panhard bar, before there is need to change sway bars.
The $4500 grip box is a great setup, but it's also really hard core. For most of us there is no real need for torque arm, unless doing serious auto cross/road racing. Just the panhard bar will do wonders. That's why you've been advised to keep looking. The MM k-member is one of the heavyest, but it's also one of the strongest. I've seen reported that AJE tends to break when used on auto-x or open track days. I think it's aimed more for drag racing. |

ive also heard that about the aje k member being more angled towards drag racing... so thats why before i go out a buy a whole suspension package and can throw some swaybars and a panhard bar, for now while i research and gather my thoughts about doing a complete conversion
im hoping with the eiback sportsline springs and tokico illimina struts (adjustable) and will stiffen the car up alot i was planning on adding eibach swaybars to compliment that as well add the MM camber caster plates to tweak the front end, and now i guess throw the panhard bar to help the rear end... the swaybars are under 300 bucks... and i want to put the struts on the stiffest setting (5) and see how it holds up,
