i think he might have been refering to first generation G. I agree, the second generation X, the RWD bar is much bigger.

The rwd and awd front sway bars are not even remotely close to be interchangeable.

Maybe this will clear some things up 4 me and others. In this pic we need the bar #1 and the bushing #2 we don't need the clamp #3 or endlink #4. Is this correct?

Is anyone noticed any downside condition of upgrading the rear swaybar?
I think my rear need more stiffness than I actually have.
I will try to find a set on forums somewhere...

The ride is a little bit harsher over the bumps, but MUCH more stable in any situation! I think this mod (RWD RSB) is most impressive in my list

I haven't noticed any more harshness in ride at all, but a noticeable improvement in under-steer. Also improved my autocross track times noticeably so it's not just in my head
