Hotchkis sway bars-- Yes or NO

I originally posted this in the Tech forum but if I'm gonna pick these up I need to jump on it so here we go.

I don't know too much about suspension mods, currently all I've got is Tein H-techs and Project Kics spacers (not really a suspension mod but oh well ;p)

Guys who've done it! Are sway bars really worth it? I looks like a great deal if I'm ever going to get em... so why not now

Get them in general? 100% yes. Pay $280 from some dude on CL? No. $240 at most.

I've had them on my car for almost 2 years now. I can tell you that it definately makes a difference, especially if you ever track your car.

Hellz yeah. Get any sway bar set for your car. The sway bars are cheaper for the G35s than the G37s but not by much. I have the hotchkis sway bars for my 09 G37 sedan and got them for $345 shipped from intensepower.com.

Hotchkis Sway bar set from Intensepower.com
Fits Models: 03-07 Nissan 350Z, 03-07 Infiniti G35 (WILL NOT WORK ON G35X) $329 shipped. brand new.
