Hey, what’s the status...
Are you still disappointed with them?
I could take them off your hands for... 2o cents on the dollar...
Seeing that they are so bad and all.

 

i already got fucked on buying them. u think i wanna get fucked again. when i get fucked, i at least want a reach around.

 

I attemped to do a group buy on a carbonfiber hood. don't talk to me about trying to make aftermarket parts. i just call it as i see it. if i would of know the bars were the same size, i would of bought the newspeed rears only. Like they say, Hinde(spelling?) sight is 20/20, right?

 

Carefull now. Neuspeed makes 2 of them. You'd have to specifically ask for the 25mm race bar if that's what you want because the other bar is only 19mm thick...just like our stock ones (at least for the TLS).

 

HA! I'll offer 30 cents on the dollar even IF I have sways already. Hmm...how far you want me to reach? lol

 

Always have to remember. If u can dish it out, you have to be able to take it and always remember to laugh. (I perfer all the way around) :P

 

I love my Comptech sways, if anybody cares.

 

you sir, are a homo for bumping this thread.


and nobody cares.

 

 

:noob:

Didn't need the bump.

Holy Sh*t. This was from a long time ago. I was a little dissapointed with them at first, but they grew on me.

 

like the phoenix

 

it should make a difference

 

I got some engineering information from Comptech a long time ago, and the front bars are thicker and the metal at the outside is what is very important.

One set of figures I received from Comptech was:

The replacement bar is about 13-20% stiffer in the front.

The rear bar is about 80% stiffer in the rear.


The torsion of a solid bar is related to radius ^ 4. There is another formula for calculating the “stiffness” of hollow bars.

BTW, just changing to a different material can make a huge difference in stiffness. The material at the outside makes such a difference when compared to the inside material, that you can just leave it out and save the weight. (If you look at graph of torsion vs. thickness using the r^4, it becomes clear why you don’t need the inner material.)

You really want to use front and rear bars, unless you want to get even *more* oversteer.

Leaving the stock bar in front along with the Comptech rear will give you increased over steer. If that was your goal, you *could* use a Comptech bar in the front and an even thicker bar in the rear. The thicker rear bars need special hardware to keep from ripping the rear sway bar mounts off the car. (IOW, the rear area needs reinforcement with FAT bars in the back.)

 

tool462 is no noob... and i bet his accord will whoop most of the cars you guys own :o

 

I thought this was Mantis' work, but it's another Tool

 

^ ^ ^ I'm innocent.

 

This time.

 

That may be the case but it's irrelivant since he bumped up a one year old topic for no reason... at least post good info if you're going to do that.....
