Hi guys,

I have a 04 6MT TL with A-Spec 18" wheels. I'm looking to improve few things on my car: body roll and front end vertical movements in turns. To be more precise I don't like the front end dipping (outter side) on bumbs in tight turn situations.

I'm going to upgrade my rear sway bar soon to a Comptech or Progress in order to limit body roll.

I did read past posts on RSB and A-Spec suspension without finding and awnser to the following questions:

-Do you think the rear sway bar upgrade will also limit the "one side front dip"?

-How does the A-Spec suspension behave in this situation?

-Any of you have used both (Comptech and Progress) RSBs? Which one do you recommend? Keep in mind that I'm in Québec, Canada and I don't want to go too far in terms of "oversteering" potential for snow and icy conditions.

Thanks for your help.

Anyone used Comptech and then Progress RSB?

Which one do you prefer.

The Comptech RSB really helps reducing body roll...its a night and day difference from the stock one. But, you have a 6MT, which already comes with a 19mm sway bar, so going from 19 to 22mm (comptech) wouldn't be much of an upgrade. I'd go for the Progress one.

 

I thought 6MT stocker was 20mm......

 

Oh, maybe it is. I still think MT owners should go for the Progress

 

If you're going to put in a new exhaust, you're better off going with the progress sway bar. The comptech sway bar has fitment issues with many aftermarket exhausts.

 

Thanks all for the replies. Keep'em coming.

JJaber06, did you see a noticeable improvement on outter corner dipping (when hitting a bump in a sharp turn) after the RSB upgrade?

Thanks.

Carl
