Well with the wonderful help of Roy and Patrick, the sway bars went in this afternoon. Removing the subframe was not scary at all, and it did not require air tools! [It was probably some of the easiest bolts ever to come off the car in fact!] The difference in the stock sway bars [19mm] to the 27mm front and 22-26mm rear is huge, and the handling difference is also big.

It feels soooo good now. I definitely notice a huge difference in handling with the bars [bye bye body roll!]. So now my suspension is pretty much done, and I'm definitely glad that I invested my money in suspension before moving on to the power mods. Between the sway bars, strut bars, and coilovers, my car feels a thousand times better than when I drove it off the lot. Now once I start adding the power to it, I'll be able to control it a lot easier.

Charlie, you are going to LOVE your sway bars. Later this week it will be time to go out and mess with the settings and play!

[hey andy can you post or send me the photos you took today?:]

I purchased them Saturday afternoon so they should ship out from FLA today and I guess they should be here by the weekend. Just in time for plenty of rain and industrial parks :lol: Jeez I hope the project is wrapped up in time...

I'd like to drop a big thanks for Partick and Roy again for doing a great job!
nobody let me take her STi for a spin last night, and the car felt AMAZING!

Job well done indeed. If anyone ever needs validation that they do good work... let me know, and I'll tell you they do GREAT work!

Nuff said.
:D
