I must not be thinking straight, but from what I can see, there are 3 holes on each side of both bars, so how exactly are they 5 way adjustable?

You need adjustable endlinks to be able to use the swaybar to its full extent.

Here's how:

Left Right
Soft Soft = soft setting
Med Med = med setting
Hard Hard = hard setting
Soft Med = slightly stiffer than soft
Med Hard = slightly stiffer than med

kenchan-can you explain it better? Your saying soft being 1st hole, med being 2nd hole, and hard being third hole? What settings are you running yours on? I want better cornering compared to what I have now with non-sports suspension (I'm getting 2005 350z suspension this week also) that doesn't totally evoke oversteer (since its harder to correct for)??

Thanks!

The hole closest to the ends of the bar is your soft setting.
Im running soft on front, med on rear.

The 4th and 5th settings require adjustable endlinks because you're going
to have one endlink set a little longer than the other. For the first 3 settings,
you can use your factory endlinks.

I'm using my factory endlinks with a soft/med setting on my 350EVO rear sway bar without a problem. Is there something negative about this I should be aware of?

If your car is sitting flat on the ground and your endlinks can
fit (soft on one side, med on the other side) onto the swaybars without
any stress you are okay..but that means your car is slightly tilted to one
side (not corner weighted correctly) because your endlinks are equal
lengths. If your car is sitting flat and using factory endlinks, you should
only be able to insert into the same position on each side of the
swaybar ends.
