Default suspension setup help

hey i am currently running JIC FLT 2 Coilovers and while i was at the track i noticed i had a lot of body roll so i purchased Tanabe front and rear sway bars for my s2k along with jic x brack, rear arm bar, strut tower bar and since i added the sway bars it seems like the rear wants to slide super easy now currently i have the front(14 out of 16 clicks) set to pretty firm and rear(11 out of 16 clicks) is set a little softer cuz i had it firm as well and it just seem to make the problem worse. So any advise on what my damper should be set on would be helpfull thx.

Put your old rear sway back on and see how you like it. My guess is it will be perfect. The Tanabe rear bar is too heavy. There are other things you can do, but I would start there, and not change anything else different at the same time.

What tires were you using at the track? It sounds like you need better sizes tires. JIC FLT2 should be really good

Go back to the factory rear sway.
