"in that case, i guess im better off getting a wider rear tires to keep the back in check?"

It is never cut and dry, wider tires will make the car hydroplane easier in the rain. I have an AP2 so I don't know what FSB to use but a little bigger might help. But like Red MX-5 said the best results will come from the driver. I would also recomed a good driving school.

[QUOTE=623baller,Apr 23 2007, 05:08 PM]i defintely agree with you MX-5,i thought about lessons and all

but i just want that assurance if sway bar is the way to go in terms of wet condition and during some fun cornerings

again im not looking to race, and i don't really want to mod the car as well, i just want to be SAFE of what the road throw at me be it the weather or the corners.

in that case, i guess im better off getting a wider rear tires to

 

LOL, he want's to make the car safer, so what he really needs is a turbo and 400 RWHP.

Actually, that might work. I'm more conservative on the street since going FI.

I avoid spinning out and scaring the crap out of myself by slowing down when the conditions require it. If there is any other way to make the car safer I really don't know what it is.

 

That about sums it up from my point of view.

I have the CT adj. fromt and love it. I later added their larger rear and although the rear had less roll, I found out what SNAP oversteer was. I took off the larger rear and went back to the OEM rear, but kept the front.

 

i auto x my car about once a month, sometimes more. i dont run R compond but i find that the back end of my car does come out quite a bit. would something like the tanabe fsb do me good? or is there something else im overlooking besides my driving style haha .besides ct adjustable what are some fsb people really like?

 

My back end comes out quite a bit too, but it's not the cars fault. The back end only comes out if I get on the throttle too early or too hard. If I'm patient and stay off the throttle until I start unwinding the steering (as if there were a string connecting my throttle foot to the steering, and only allowing my foot to do down on the gas as the steering unwinds) then the car will behave nicely. If you go to an Evolution school they'll tell you to learn to get the most out of the stock suspension and tires before starting to change things, and IMO that's great advice.

Try delaying your throttle application until you start unwinding the steering and then squeeze the throttle slowly and the back end sould stay under the car. Don't dive into the corners too hard either; Slow in, fast out.

A good adjustable bar that will work well with the OEM tires will run you $600.00, and you could do three Evloution schools for the same money. If you've never been to one of the schools it will do much more for your times than any mod you can make to the car (possibly short of going to R compound tires).
