Im not sure if the j30 sway bars and Z32s are cross compatible... youd have to at least find a picture to see if the bending is the same and then have someone take various measurements..

Id kind doubt if the sway bars were the same thou.

The sway bars in the J are more taut than the sway bars in the 300zx, since the J is more heavier car.

Does the J even have a rear sway bar because I peaked under and didn't see one.

Also, does anyone know the thickness of the front bar because I want to order polyurthane bushings for the front sway bar????

The is about 99% opposite of the the real world situation on any and every oem vehicle!

Every vehicle has a front sway bar, even rear engined ones........now rear sway bars were rare in the early 90's on generic vehicles except on taxi and policecars.

The use of the word SWAY BAR is very confusing inthat people think the purpose is to reduce sway which is the job of the springs [stiffness].
