Whiteline is extremely popular and reliable for many makes outside of the fabled S2000 apparently where swaybars cost twice as much for no apparent reason.

I know I'm responding to a years old thread but... I recently put on a set of C3 wheels and a whiteline FSB. Using 255 squared rival s tires, stock 03 ap1 RSB. I have RSG spec Feal 441+ coilovers.
I did a NASA event at CMP last weekend and did not like the front end push in slower corners. . I either need to stiffen up the rear or go with a Karcepts FSB and adjust to my liking.
Turn 3 has a slight off camber apex to it and I kept getting wayy looser in the rear than I did with stock size wheels, RS4s and whiteline FSB.
I think the whiteline FSB is perfect for a more stock suspension setup s2k, especially an AP1. When you start chasing lap times and getting into TT it seems like an adjustable setup is a must have.
My 2cents

I was running the same setup when I was competing in STR class. I was running C3 wheels / Karcepts FSB but no RSB. I did try installing a small RSB for a couple events (Miata FSB on the rear) and it gave me a lot of over steer to the point that my co-driver spun it a couple times. It all depends on your driving style but in the end this setup worked for me and 2 co drivers. It helped us push my car to a 2nd place overall finish in STR with heavy competiton (CR/ AP2 / ND Miata (just came out at the time 2016) / AP1- all fully prepped for STR).
my .02 cents as well
