    I'm starting to think the same thing aswell Even If I go with a RA60 swaybar for now and see how that goes before going out and spending $150+ on an adjustable rear.
    Because even that it going to be a massive improvement from having nothing on there currently.
    5kg springs sound good for the rear?

    i run a 24mm front with falcon kings and 6kg springs with stock swaybar for the rear

    incredible understeer
    i was thinking an 18mm rear bar would balance things up a bit.
    i really dont want to get rid of the front bar either

    also i thought selby swaybars that ajps sell now are suppose to be better than whiteline

    could have told you that set-up would be a bad idea....as i stated earlier "stiffest end breaks traction 1st"

    selby bars may possibly be better then whiteline, they are more $$ also. you get what you pay for. cant say i have had any real problems with the whiteline stuff at all.

    also a note on diameter. it doesnt mean shit. the stiffness of the bar comes from what its made from 1st, THEN the diameter. so just because you have a "18mm" sway bar doesnt mean it will be good eoungh to balance things out.

    after swapping several different springs, shocks, LCA, etc etc in and out of my car i can say learn from other advice who have done all the hard work before, do your own research on top of that, and buy something thats adjustable so that you can change it slightly without replacing it.

    saves you much cashola.

    Well I hope the swaybar you sold me fits, Oliver. You knew all this /\/\ and still sold it to me without a word of warning? Im not too happy. I have 4 piston brakes too.

    Not cool, mang. Not cool.

    Im running 27mm front 20mm rear adjustable selby sway bars.

    It was the single most effective bang for your buck upgrade i have done.

    If your worried about clearing your exhaust id be calling up selby sway bars as they will make you a custom bar for your car to what ever size you need. May sting a bit on the pocket but to date it was the best investment i made with my 86

    I did have a quick look at Selbys but atm they're a bit more than I'm willing to pay, plus it's cheaper for me to chop my exhaust and modify that then to get a custom bar made up but thanks for the suggestion anyway

    Haha fair enough.

    Do what ever you can to get adjustable tho, if your planning on taking it to the track you will be playing around to find the best setting so its worth the extra $50 to get an adjustable bar.
