PS Just when I thought I was done with the mods, debadged, lowered and KN drop ins..2008X.. Dealer did me a good deed, new steering wheel and new dash over the odometer..

don't buy it new. I got my s sway for ~$35 shipped from eBay. Best mod I've ever done, and a pretty straightforward DIY.

Logical assumption, and more than likely correct.

Most people buying brand new AWD Infinti's are older people in their 40's and up looking for a nice commuter car. Most prob don't drive it near as aggressive as many of us do.

So the sway par setup promotes understeer which people have an easier time to control. Putting a larger rear sway bar will tip the balance to oversteer, which can be tricky if you are not used to the feeling of it.

I do notice my '06 understeers a lot. I wonder if a RWD '06 bar would give the same result.
