Hotchkis Sway bar guys with 06 an up G35 IN HERE!

Hey guys,

well I just installed a set of Hotchkis Sways (4 hole front version) on my 06 6MT Coupe. Only suspension mods are a full set of 2008 springs and struts from my buddies 350Z. (Dropped the car exactly 1/2") and rides like stock.

Heres my question:

The front has 4 holes. The instructions state to use the firmest setting. Which on the older sways was the 3rd hole, not the 4th. Well I have an 06 with the sport suspension.

Now here is where it gets tricky. THe 4th hole will put me at 78% stiffer than stock on my year/model coupe.

On the older G35s 05 and lower that hole will be like 129% stiffer.


So, when I put the endlink in the 4th hole, it looks TERRIBLE. Meaning the angle at which the endlink sits. it is very contorted. I would really like to use it on the 4th hole, but I am afraid it will snap the endlink. Dont get me wrong, it fits and bolts up just fine. However it just looks pretty stressful on the endlink.

What hole are you guys running for the front?

THanks guys!

i think 4th hole is probally to much bar for your car anyway given your suspension and Im guessing your on stock wheels and tires. Even if your not i think most run the 2nd hole.
