Mindspin311 Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Looking to add an RSB to balance out the car after adding RCE T1's. Id like to start at the rear 1st before deciding on a front bar. So my question is, which rear bar best matches up with the factory front bar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonts Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 Believe that the only rear specific bars would be JDM or RalliTek. Other bars are meant to be done as a set and should be done together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So my question is, which rear bar best matches up with the factory front bar? well. what balance are you looking for? it's all relative. if you want an mr2 turbo type of oversteer get a huge rear bar. if you want more neutral compared to a fwd car the RCE should already do that for you. car for sale.

Ryandigi Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 AVO also makes a RSB and many seem to say it is a perfect match for the stock FSB. I believe the AVO is 20mm solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindspin311 Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 well. what balance are you looking for? it's all relative. if you want an mr2 turbo type of oversteer get a huge rear bar. if you want more neutral compared to a fwd car the RCE should already do that for you. The T1's def. take out a lot of the body roll in the car. But, I have them set on the soft side. Philly roads arent the greatest, so on the softer side, the car still handles bumps like its on stock suspension, but the body roll is def reduced. So my plan is to work with swaybars to dial out the rest of the remaining body roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoobie Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I have the rallitek RSB and think its a great match for the front RSB if you're looking for neutral handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkside Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 I have the AVO rear sway bar and was designed to run with front factory sway.. In japan thats what many people run with.. The front sway is pretty good from factory.. Make sure you get reinforment brackets and better endlinks though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underdog Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 ... Other bars are meant to be done as a set and should be done together. True, but there is little harm in taking the rear bar from a set and trying it alone. You can always add the front bar if you want to tighten things up further or get back some of the understeer. Unless you go with a Perrin 25mm rear bar and stock front bar, I don't think you will have crazy oversteer, but as always you need to get used to the new behavior of the car. I really like my adjustable Whitelines. The Crimson Dynamo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTTuner Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Do a Perrin 22mm and set it on soft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snow05gtRI Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I just installed a JDM 20mm RSB (the OEM JDM one, http://www.rallitek.com/20restbar.html is the only place i've found it online, I got it used through the forums) and love the feel of the car. big improvement over stock. a bit more oversteer but the rear feels nice and planted. edit: i just scrolled down the page and realized I posted this same comment in the other thread you asked about suspension bits...
