Hello,

I'm not sure if this is even in the correct forum, as I did not see anything related to post things for handling. Anyway, I have an 05 LS and I want to improve the handling. When I recently did my oil change, the mechanic told me I would need to get a sway bar kit and it'll stiffen the handling(which I need cause I hate how wobbly the car feels sometimes). I looked on eBay and found this set:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Eibach-ANTI-ROLL-KIT-Both-Front-and-Rear-Sway-Bars-Part-3899-320-/310575532866?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3AChevrolet%7CModel%3ACobalt&hash=item484fbe8b42&vxp=mtr

Is this something you guys would recommend?

Also, it says it's for both the front and rear, but it really only shows the rear bar. Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

 

Get yyz v2 springs from Powell and koni shocks n struts for handling.. moog endlinks

 

DONT get the eibach bars, several guys have had the rear crack over a year or so.

It all depends on your budget, judging by the car.... The budget is not unlimited. But heres the best for handling

SS/TC 08-10 Front Sway Bar ($100 or less )
John Powell Hardcore Rear Sway bar (about $300 I believe)
John Powell YYZ V2 Springs ($325 or so)

Edit: after seeing above post I forget strut/shock upgrades are a must. I want to say koni's are like $700 just for struts/shocks, I personal got FE5 SS Struts for about $380 shipped from crateenginedepot.com (also where you can find sway bars and springs) FE5 struts/shocks work great.

Those 3 mods will seriously....PUT YOUR CAR ON RAILS!

 

Not sure if the SS/TC front sway bar is needed, doesnt that just increase understeer?
I agree with the YYZ's and Hardcore bar.

The koni's are $560 at ZZP or 540 at tirerack

 

Thank you all for the replies! This helps alot. I've already upgraded my springs and shocks/struts. Although they still might need to be switched out?

I've purchased Megan Racing springs and the shocks/struts I forgot what namebrand they were but I purchased them for about $150 on eBay.

I'll definitely look into getting the John Powell Hardcore Rear Sway Bar!

 

megans suck man i have them on my 07 base model. AWFUL ride

 

Looks good tho

 

Funny you say that because that was the first thing I complained about! LOL. It's so bumpy, but it does look good I have to admit. What lowering springs are good that still offers a comfortable ride?

 

hook yourself up with a BRZ?

 

its pretty much in agreement best drop + Best Ride = SSC Springs.
