#328 of 330 Re: 2007 Accord EX sway bars [lilengineerboy] by paisan Oct 10, 2008 (5:56 pm)
Replying to: lilengineerboy (Oct 10, 2008 5:43 pm) It should give you less push in the turns. A larger front sway would probably negate the positive effects of the larger rear sway, however larger sways all around would yield less lean in the turns.   Let us know how it works out!   -mike Motorsports and Modifications Host Replies to this message: lilengineerboy (Oct 11, 2008 10:24 am)

Replying to: paisan (Oct 10, 2008 5:56 pm) Yeah, stiffer rear bar = less understeer, but there are reports that going with the 20 mm can give you snap oversteer. The front strut tower brace seems to balance out the 17mm rear bar and the stock front bar by helping the front bar work a little better. I am scrounging for parts right now and we will see how it goes. I am not expecting miracles with stock 205/60R16s either. Maybe a lottery win will get me to 215/50R17s. I think these suspension "tweaks" will be the first mods and maybe next year look at soft-sports or the H&R "OE" series springs and Konis or Bilstiens. A little lower, a little tighter would be nice.
#330 of 330 Is a front strut bar worth it for DD? by stevehecht Apr 08, 2009 (5:25 am)
My Honda mechanic says it's not, that unless you've got enough g's being generated you'll never feel the difference. I've got a '07 V6 AT with a 17mm TL rear sway bar added. To my mind even a small improvement in handling is worth the $127 investment for a Neuspeed strut bar. Opinions?
