I am about to buy my sway bars for my s13. I have decided on white line, and have found a place back east that can sell them to me shipped for $338. I'm wondering if you know of anywhere with a better deal?2nd question to the owners is which adjustment holes front and rear have you found to be most nuetrual? (understear/overstear) 3rd question is which endlinks are you running?

I have Whitelines. They have been great! I'm currently set up with an understeer but I haven't driven the car with the whitelines since winter. I'll probably change it up in the next week or two.

Also, I have some home depot set up for end links. Mine were "missing" when I brought my car to JNR motorsports in nh... ahh well. Ya live and learn.

338...are they from jgycustoms? I picked mine up directly from them. Cost me less than that.

yeah i cant say a bad thing about the white line sway bars. they are one of the better quality sway bar out there. im running front and rear bars set on the outer hole front and rear which is suppossed to be more forgiving with over/understeer with the wite line endlinks. i also am setup with the kyb agx adjustable struts and eibach sportline springs and have them set mid way for damper stiffness, i purchased most of my parts from pdm-racing. the prices are good and they are focused upon 240sx performance. Tom, which is the owner is very knowledgeable and has helped me out with questions on a personal bases many times. as far as sway bar setting the stiffer you go with the sway bar expect increased understeer going into turns and increased oversteer coming out of turns. this is greatly effected based on how you have your suspension set up. from trial and error i concluded that for a daily driven car this was the most realistic for me.

Look into Progress bars before you buy.

Progress > Whiteline

Do a search for JGY Customs. Not very good responses from people. I would stay away, they sound shady. SPL parts sells them, as well as there own endlinks (I think they are a site sponsor too). http://splparts.com/main4/index.htm. I've heard the endlinks on the whiteline bars aren't the best, they have binding issues. I would personally go for the progress bars. They come with adjustable metal endlinks already.

I chose JGY customs just because they were the cheapest I could find. I also chose white line brand sway bars because they are the only ones SPL carries. They have all the coolest parts. But shipped from SPL is like $432. Seems like the war between white line and progress is like ford and chevy. unless anyone can come forward with real stats that show one is better than the other.

I've bought a couple of things from JGY. Their email response is slow and not friendly at all, but their products are good. No idea if they are shady since I received parts on time with no problem.

I was going to get Whiteline too, but found out about Progress before the purchase. You can't beat the value. They fit perfect and end links are amazing. Overall, best bang for the buck. To me it's more like Hyundai and Nissan..
