anyone done this lately? make any huge difference? prices? http://www.2gnt.com/nuke/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=29

do the rsdsm sway bar setup. see here http://exileracing.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=215_248_247&products_id=370

there are some stock parts you need to buy to use those though but thats the best bang for your buck, but unless you autocross or whatever you really dont need it

Suspension techniques bars are really good too. Stef went with the pair cause I was told the RM bar was too stiff in the front and caused understeer. ST bars have been great though and the front is adjustable.

But you need some parts from a GS-t or any eclipse/talon that had a factory rear sway bar. I think all you need is the upper control arms, endlinks, and sway bar brackets. Do some searcing to make sure that is all you need.

I just got the parts to do this from a local dealer that gives a Club DSM discount. The total was 214.88. This included all hardware plus the bar. The stock bar is pretty cheap, 50 bucks, so I will use it for now and upgrade in the future. Make sure you source GST parts not GS, for some reason GST parts were cheaper. Below is part number : part description : list : discount price : number needed. I will be installing this next week, with my disc brake conversion. I can tell you how it feels after I do it if you want to wait.

RMDSM bars are designed by enthusiasts. ST bars are designed by people with drawings of the suspension. Try to run an upgraded exhaust with the ST bar... it does not fit. The pacesetter exhaust sits on the ST bar, for chrissake. Plus, the RM bar gives more balance... the rear RMDSM bar is much thicker, so if it's oversteer you want, use the stock front and the RMDSM back.

Like he said, go with the RMDSM upgrade. Very good quality.

I cant believe you paid 50.00 for a stock sway bar.......most guys here myself included would sell one for 15.00 shipped.

I have tried to buy parts off of people before and it never panned out so I don't do it anymore. I waste more time and effort that way, much easier to buy them locally and a whole lot easier to return if the part is messed up.

Two days ago I installed the rear RM sway bar and the whole back end feels a lot stiffer but now my front seems weak and seems to roll too much (in perspective) lol, So next weekend's project is to do the front one. and oh yeah, the RM bars are huge next to the stock ones!

i got both lower control arms, all bolts, links, bar and brackets + a rear caliper set for 100$
