I have done all the basic bolt-ons for z and I am debating which to do next, I'm sry if this thread is in the wrong section; didn't know which section to put it in. I'm going to get a utec down the road but I want to know whether to get the amuse front bumper or hotchkiss sways with my tax return, other suggestions are welcome, thanks

 

An Amuse front is about 4 x the cost of Hotchkis sways...and then you have the ship it, paint it, install it. And all you're left with is a fancy bumper on an otherwise stock bodied car.

If you want the car to have less body roll in turns, quicker turn in response, then sways are the obvious answer - not a big deal to install (couple hours, can even be done yourself).

Overall though, it's like asking should I wear my sneakers today or get married.....

 

 

Agree with adam, big diff $ between that two.

 

 

I clicked on this thread to give my opinion but the first reply pretty much covered everything.

 

lmfao

 

I'm getting a replica amuse front so it's not that much more expensive than the sways but I see your point, I guess what I'm asking is which would y'all do

 

the state of your economy I would buy a gun and put the rest under a mattress...

 

^ haha

 

Sways make a huge difference. Great Mod.

 

Not to jack the thread, but do aftermarket sways make that big of a difference compared to OEM ones?

 

I thought this video did a pretty good job at illustrating it.

I definately feel less body roll, and feel more connected to the ground during corners. It also seems to make the car more neutral as opposed to the Z's tendency to understeer which I dislike. There's a quick S-turn near my house I used to take at 40mph, now I can accelerate through it at that speed.

 

sways!

 

yeah they do. Great upgrade for the $

 

better performance = sways

better looking (even though Zs are sexy anyway) = amuse front bumper

which would you rather have....my opinion is to go with the sways
