Rear sway bar installed.. Makes the car a lot more flat. With my Koni's turned up full hard and both sway bars on the soft setting the car seems to be very tail happy. I will have to fiddle around with the settings.



Nice!

Try the front sway on its hardest setting, with the rear on soft. Thats how I have mine, it seems pretty good :)

No understeer, just a lot less oversteer


yeah that would make sence.. i just had the front one in for a week and it felt awesome!

4th July Update

Well there is nothing to update..just been enjoying the car :)

i do have a leaking slave cylinder, a new one turned up the other day so when there is a spare second i shall throw that in along with a new fuel filter...

apart from that give me a week or so and the car may be changing :P

Will it work on a B6 or is it best just to get one from an RX7?

Not to gum up Regie's thread but no, the NB one won't work on an NA. If you're really that keen on it go the RX7 route but there are plenty of threads on the subject. Have a search around.
