I just put on Nismo sway bars on my G35C last week and the car feels much more stable when taking a turn quickly, body roll is significantly reduced. The one criticism with Nismo for some people is that these sways are not adjustable. This doesn't matter to me as I do not go to the track. If you prefer adjustable sway bars, then you can consider Hotchkis or Cusco. Also the sway bar does not affect VDC, so it won't be a problem in the rain. You also do not need an alignment after this install. Hope this helps.

I'll vouch for BJ's 350Evo sways. Car handles/rides great with the stock springs, Koni shocks & 350Evo sways.

What are the pros and cons of solid versus hollow sways? It seems like the 350EVO sways would add more weight to your car than say Hotchkis. Hotchkis is also cheaper and has a wider range of adjustability.

I am not promoting Hotchkis, I am only weighing the choices. Any thoughts?

The 350EVO front bars is solid 1 1/4 " three hole adjustable
Our rear bar is 15/16" solid three hole adjustable.
Our front bar in the softest position is slightly softer than the OEM bar. I would see that as offering a pretty wide variety of adjustability. Our rear doesnt have the same twist and bends that the oem bar or other aftermarket companies follow. This adds to the bars effectiveness.
We will also be releasing some other products here very shortly.

Any hints? Bushings? (other then 350EVOSB-1) Or perhaps something for the rear suspension?

What about the weight difference? Wouldn't a solid bar add a lot of weight? Isn't this something most drivers try to do the opposite of? At least those who want to go faster.

Hey BJ, what settings would you recommend for a street car? I am installing a Vortech SC this weekend and I definitely want to firm up the ride. Thanks.
