Whiteline Front & Rear Swaybars

[Stinger GT SS]

I got a chance to do some more spirited driving around corners today, and I'm definitely impressed with these sway bars. The car is much flatter and feels more composed around corners, with less body roll. It still feels like a big car, but no longer sways like a boat. I also managed to push the car harder on corners without the rear end getting as 'floaty' as it has been. I'm not going to push it too hard, and will gradually increase my cornering speed and acceleration over time, as I don't want to go to that Mustang life. As expected, there is zero penalty for these improvements and the ride remains as smooth and quiet as always (I also coated the trunk with dynamat, and added a layer of acoustic foam on top, over the weekend).

The bars are both at their softer setting, and I don't see any particular need to go hard with a GT car, at least not until I've had a chance to try out some more challenging roads (and maybe wait for summer for that).

I also like the fact that you can see the gold rear links through the rear rotors, for that extra bit of bling.

Edit: for those wondering, both front and rear bars are solid, not tubular.

Thanks for the review & pics, your description when driving is the same I experience with the Eibachs & Whiteline End Links I have fitted.

Thanks for the review, I am sure the folks waiting on Eibachs will appreciate this. Another good alternative.

Be curious to see if you get any squeak and how you fix it with grease since there are no grease nipples on these like on the Eibachs

Great review. Congrats!

I don't think they have nipples. It looks like they're still using 'grease free' (PTFE/Teflon lining on the inner surface) bushings. However, I don't think these work that great as I have heard complaints about noise (and the fact they still include grease in the kits...). When I installed Whiteline's front and rear bars and endlinks on my '17 WRX, I used a load of grease, just to be on the safe side.

One thing I learned long ago from one of Whiteline's biggest sellers is that instead of using the grease, use teflon tape.

Also, and probably to reiterate at this point, Whiteline bars are solid not tubular.

Reviving an old thread to say, there are a few front and rear sets of these available for $318 on ebay right now. They'll go fast, so get them while you can. Ordered mine yesterday and they arrived today (shipped within PA). The seller that I bought from had 2 sets and they are both gone now. Still a couple on there from other sellers.
