Just trying to get a feel for any interest in aftermarket sway bars for the 07 sedan. Anyone besides me?
I only ask because one company I talked to said they didn't sell as much as they wanted for the earlier sedan so nothing planned yet for them. Another company said they would have a set out in about 2 weeks. I was just curious to what the demand would be. Maybe I could set up a group buy.

The stillen group buy for my 2005 was the best money I ever spent on the G and never regretted it for a second. It leaned a lot in stock form.

I'm not sure this car will need new front and rear, I think it may just need a beefier rear sway bar to reduce body roll - the front bar is pretty big from the factory.
With that said this is the one mod I am 100% serious about doing. It made such a difference on my Acura, I regretted waiting as long as I did to do it!

I have yet to push it at 10/10ths, but the 07 G doesn't have much discernible lean (sport at least). In my opinion, it has a better set up for the suspension that my old STi with mac struts.

I was looking at the pics of the underbody in this thread ...

That rear sway bar is one of the thickest stock sway bars I've ever seen. Maybe aftermarket bars won't make much of a difference after all.

I'm pretty sure the non-S models don't use that big of a bar, I've had my G on a lift a few times and thought it was quite a bit smaller in diameter. The bar in that picture looks to be about 21mm I thought the X anti-sway bar was closer to 16 or 17mmOriginally Posted by terrycs

I made a kind of confusing comment which is my fault. The STi doesn't really role much either, but IMO its SUSPENSION in general is inferior.Originally Posted by XXeR

My old WRX wagon rolled a lot though even with the sedan sway bar in it.

I just measured and I was off, the stock rear sway bar on the G35X is 15mm, so a 20-22mm rear bar would be the answer.
Sorry for the resurrection.
FYI on the Sport, the front bar is 26.5mm, the rear bar is 24.3mm. I just measured both with calipers.
