1. Upgrading will always help - the quicker you can ditch the stocky coathangers, the better!
2. I've generally been pretty happy with whiteline
3. Can't see if being an issue... make sure you ask though

Yeh, well the car was completely different on steering and handling from the front swaybar upgrade, Now it's almost a tad to stiff, but i like it, feels more like a go kart than a sloppy sedan!  Little bit of understeer and a throttle control oversteer can make for some extra skill training when it's wet...She's a delicate girl!

Be aware that an excessively stiff rear swaybar will make your car very tail-happy and skittish. I imagine a bigger swaybar will be an improvement over the stock one, but don't go overboard!

I've used Whiteline exclusive over the last couple of years for my suspension upgrades, to the point now where the only part of my suspension not modified by them is the front swaybar.
They are very helpful, but its best to take the car there to discuss what you want.
They'll ask you how drive, how you want to drive, what else you want to upgrade later, & they can see what's already on the car.
I've got a 20mm adjustable bar on the back of my FWD, but they handle differently.
I know a guy who used to have an EL XR8 with Whiteline 26mm front bar & 22mm rear.

i have a pedders suspension item on my car, very happy with it, corners much better, but i also have good suspension all round. ring my pedders store and ask for Jeff 0249 421143 and ask him for the part number then ring your nearest pedders store and they can order it.
from memory it was about 160 - 195 dollars.

Well she's pretty tail happy as it is, and i'm looking to buy thick wheels for the back, basically I want some nice stiffness round corners. I think i'm doing the right thing. I'll keep the old one anyway, there's nothing to cut to put it in...is there?
Thanks for the posts guys.
I find that pedders overcharge a bit. I'm tempted to get it straight from whiteline.
