Ray - Do you think we really need a front sway bar? I'm looking into them and wonder if the front is really needed. What are your thoughts.

Also, I see that UUC sells them in addition to H&R, but their price is about double. It's probably because it's adjustable, but for someone who's a track noob, and mostly driving on the street..do i really need that adjustability?

If you're faded, you can let me know tomo. hahaha

in my experience, rear sway plus front strut/sway is all we need.

Well actually id ont know about our cars...

my old lancer setup was tein ss + rear sway + front strut + rear strut and it handled like a beast. No needed for a tie-bar

That's what i was thinking as well. I'm just on the fence if i want to splurge to get both or not. If it's not really that needed, then i might just go with a rear.

Yes, if you get the rear, get the front. Most people like to stiffen the rear because they want to acheve oversteer, which works for sme cars , but not this one. The E90/2 needs balance to excel.

Some also state that the front is ineffective. I can't say they're wrong, but without the front bar, the increased stiffness is not balanced.

I have yet to install or drive UUC Sway equiped 3 series, so I can't say it's better or the same. However, from the needs you described, the HR will suffice.

Some of my best and most intuitive psots happen while I'm faded.

This was the result of Zaino and one weeks worth of mother nature? Nice.
