might get a little bit of rub on the front depending on how it was mounted, but its gonna depend on how big the bar is.

regardless its not that much, and nothing a few light taps with a hammer cant fix. or just ignore it.

the A31 cefiro rb20 front sway bar bolts right up to the s-chassis and will clear all rb oil pans including the rb26 oil pan with out the front of the pan chopped.

thanks for the input guys. i'm looking to swap a 20 within the next couple of weeks but i'd still need the car to be competent around the corners.

it'll need to clear a 27mm ST bar btw.

I've wondered this too cause I have the thick *** Whiteline sway bar(s) on my S13. I know the Syko intall kit uses some spacers to relocate the sway bar bracket... Anyone else running the Whiteline front sway bar on S13 with RB20 and R32 xmember + nismo (or stock) mounts?
