I don't think thicker sway bars will actually prevent fishtailing. You need better rubber.

Re: yay i installed nismo sway bars

Now this is just a guess, but I'd venture to bet that leaving the VDC active would help prevent fishtailling....

Re: yay i installed nismo sway bars

Prevent fishtailing by using VDC? Now where would the fun be in that? Besides after fishailing enough the VDC calls it quits and disables itself...So far i've done it twice. You know, SLIP light stuck in the on position and the VDC button in-operabler until the car is turned off and restarted.

plus the navigation gives you all these errors and gives you the option to find the closest Infiniti.

Re: yay i installed nismo sway bars

ahahaha that happened to me and i was like wtf then as u were say i restarted the car and it went back to normal but mine happened when i had the VDC off. o-well. I would not try it. I was doing some crazy spins and stuff in a parking lot and then the car got all [censored] up with nav saying there was a problem and i was like damn and not to mention that some one had called the cops and i could here them coming and i had to get the F$%^ out of there but after a restart all was normal again.

Have fun but dont do what i do kids

Re: yay i installed nismo sway bars

carlos. [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] didn't you like how the nav showed you a giant VDC block then ABS and then tried to help you find the closest Infiniti dealer. When I first saw that after the dyno I was kind of worried.

But ya same thing I just drove away and all the nice lights and warnings went away.

has anyone taken the fuse out for the abs/vdc yet?
