Excelerate Performance: Progress 24MM Rear Sway Bar Groupbuy!!



Excelerate Performance is happy to announce a Groupbuy for the Progress 24MM Adjustable Rear Sway Bar for the 99-08 Acura TL, 01-03 Acura CL. Here is how the Groupbuy will work. We will give until Wednesday, June 15th to form a list. Once we determine how many people are on the list we will make a promo code on the website to reduce the price. Currently, we sell it for about $135 plus shipping, which is already a pretty aggressive price.

The prices will be as follows:

10 People - $130 plus shipping
20 People - $125 plus shipping


Shipping will not exceed $15 to the cont 48 US

Let's begin a list. Please only add your name if you are actually going to purchase the sway bar.

1.
2.
3.
4.
etc etc

For those of you who do not know what the Progress Rear Sway Bar is:



Progress Anti-Roll Bars are cold-formed in-house using custom built precision bending equipment. Both laser-cut and CNC bar ends are MIG welded in place to ensure a precise fixture for exact fit.

Reduced Body Roll Adds Driver Confidence

Less Roll Means More Traction and Cornering Speed

Polyurethane Bushings Produce Crisp Response on Turn-In

Is it true 6MTs already have 24mm rear sway bars? Of course they're not adjustable though, if they are that thickness. I read that a few places around here and just would like to get facts straight.

Edit: nvm, more searching pwns me https://acurazine.com/forums/showpos...86&postcount=3

That is a nice looking bar, pretty simple to install? I was just going over my F/R suspension the other day making sure things were sound for my upcoming state inspection and it looks like the RSB is quite easy to change.

Off to the 3G garage to do some homework....

Benefit much on stock suspension in good shape? Corners on spirited drives are already pretty damn stable, rear end stays basically flat and just confidently follows the rest of the car. I can imagine this bar would make a significant improvement.

if you think your car corners flat and you still have stock suspension and stock sway bar than you'll be in for a surprise once you get this sway bar installed...

i have one and although it was a pain in the ass to install, it was well worth it.

other people probably had less trouble installing it compared to me, but me and a friend spent a good 3-5 hours just trying to toss and turn the new bar in. removing the old bar was easy as cake. we had the rear 2 tires off and 1 jack stand on each side of the car. clearance to twist and turn the new 24mm bar was barely there!

managed to get it installed, but my rear sway bar also has a gajillion scratch marks from trying to slide it in place.

Thanks for the feedback. It sounds like I'd be quite impressed with the upgrade, might just have to put it in the want/must have list.

I found a few DIY's, doesn't sound too bad.

hopefully more research has found your stock sway bar for a 6MT is 20mm NOT 24 mm. so the progress bar is a huge upgrade.

install was simple. my brother, with a little bit of my help, had the RSB installed in less than an hour. took one wheel off and car up on jack stands. (see 3G garage for install DIY tips/guides). justnspace can chime in with his RSB on stock set up and maybe a few others. i already had aspec suspension installed. this is one girl

I'm confused. The description says 99-08 Acura TL, 01-03 Acura CL. Put me down for one if it's for the 3G TL. If I buy 2, can I save on shipping? Put both into one box?

I had a rsb on my last car, a 99 maxima. Made a night and day difference in stability when changing lanes on the highway and cornering in general.

I'm down for this...but I would come to the shop and have it installed, rather than sent to my house.

That's fine. Just specify that when you order the bar in the Customer Comment box.

If the GB pricing runs until this coming Friday I'm in, I guess it can't hurt to sit aside some play money. lol

I will begin shipping these orders as soon as the orders arrive. We need to get to 20 people though so we need more orders to get this moving.
