WOuld the eibach front and rear sway bar kit be worth the money? The s2k already handles like a F1 car, anyone you got an experience with this kit?

I have them and love them so far. It seems to be a good match with my set-up; non-staggered 255 star specs, HKS hipermax coilovers(13F/11R kg) and -2F/-3R camber.

Depending on what year s2k you have, the front may or may not be worth it. I have an 00 and the front bar on full stiff is barely any stiffer(on paper) then the stock one. It would however be one more thing you can adjust to get your set-up just right.

I went from 16" to ap2v1's as well, and im sure we are losing power. Bigger wheel, bigger tire, more mass to turn = less power



the ONLY remedy is a forged turbo kit...well, thats what I think anyway

I see these on ebay for about $350 for front and rear Eibach sways. Good price? Where did you get yours?
