So today after class theres this turn that takes me on the on ramp to 610. Well the light was green so i figured I could push my car little around the corner. Corner was semi sharp. I lowered my car on sprint springs with kyg gr2s. Well I only took the turn at about 40 mph and I had body roll like theres no tomorrow. I have the stock gt front strut bar and i know that does crap, but how can i eliminate this body roll. I know suspension technique sway bars will do, but will i also need the front and rear strut bars with the sway bars? Or can I just do the sway bars and not have to worry about the strut bars?

floor bars are the largest jokes ever.

better shocks would be a good bet but gr2 will suffice.

swaybars will be the best bang for the buck.

BINGO.

Also, front strut bars are more for looks, especially the EBay specials. They also tend to add to the cars natural understeer, which is something you want to lessen.
