Hey guys,
Just had my car serviced and some Whiteline swaybars installed front and rear. Oh baby does my car handle so much better! It's bewdiful! Who else has had swaybars installed and what do ya think? I got Whiteline 30mm front end (the EF "X" model) and the Whiteline 24mm rear end into my 'fattified' EF II gli. There is virtually no body roll what-so-ever and she corners like a go kart ;) Love it! Booyakasha!

Good job Matt! I'm planning to do the same to mine since the bushes are stuffed, and I have a crack in one of the rear ones! How much did they set you back?

The whiteline stuff is great, I've got the 30mm bar in the front of the NF.
It was hard for me to tell the difference though, as I went from dead stock shagged LWB suspension to king springs, konis and the whiteline bar... Obviously it feels 100 times better, but I'm not 100% sure how much of a difference the sway bar made as it was all done at the same time. It sits nice and flat during cornering, but the rear end feels a little bit loose... I guess having a thicker sway bar in the rear end would fix that though.
