1223, What is everyone's current set-up? Posted by Irfan, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Mine is (or will be within a month when the parts get here):
Tokico Illumimas 5-way Tokico Springs (front linear, rear progressive) Suspension Techniques Front Sway Bar (19mm) Suspension Techniques Rear Sway Bar (19mm) Pilot Front Strut Tower Brace *Pilot Rear Strut Tower Brace *Pilot Rear Lower Tie Bar *RRE Front Lower Tie Bar 16x6 OZ rims (stock sports package) 205/55 RS-A's (stock)
* = ordered part, not recieved yet.
I love the set-up, and cant wait til the other bars come in! What does eveeryone else run? I really need some better tires and rims- hopefully in a few months! I'm hoping to find some who has tokico illuminas and pro-kits to see if there is a big difference between the pro-kits and Tokico springs.

Just the stock front sway bar, getting the rear control arms/end links priced right now to add the rear sway bar (debating b/t getting RM Sway bars, or saving money and getting GS-T Sway Bars). Also making a custom upper rear bar, gonna require slight cutting of rear deck (which is better than any rear upper bar in existince lol)

1232, Move the muffler to fit... Posted by Skrilla, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I have the GS-T so the muffler isn't too big but it can't be done by any muffler either. Anyway I wanted thicker in the rear since a carbon fiber hood I've always been planning for(finally it's coming - $388 shipped). My batt. is also relocated and I also have my subs back there. So my handling *should* be neutral leaning toward mild understeer(finally) when I get my Hood(-40lbs and minus a 40lb+ batt). It had some nasty tailing antics for a while. The rear is totally controllable and I can lose it at will (now that I've somewhat had time to learn my car again)and with the hood it should be perfect.

1233, RE: Move the muffler to fit... Posted by RyaN95i4, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
so the muffler is the only reason the awd bars dont fit? does the piping get in the way, or just the muffler? i have an aftermarket muffler which is WAY smaller than the stock muffler (like 10" shorter lol) so would i have any other issues fitting the awd rear bar?

1236, I am going to sell them local Posted by DeanoD, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
The shipping would cost too much to make the deal worth it for you or me. I posted it for $50 for the front and rear bars with the four poly bushings. This is a good deal for the local Arkansas DSMers.
BTW: the stock 2G awd 18mm bar would not fit my car. I have one and when the car lowers down on the tires the bar hits the cross beam between the lower control arms. I am not willing to modify either the bar or the beam.
