Naw...
what you just described about is called a strut bar, not a sway bar.Originally Posted by DayDayz e36
never ever seen you before and you're a mod.
what kind of bar and polish do you use btw?
it has to do with the suspension, it's a bar that's either in the front or rear.
you'll see it under most hoods of cars going across the engine from right to left, something to do with balance, handling, and turning as far as I know.
the system i'd throw in a car like that
RonJons...effin sick. Still torn between these and the A-Specs.
grills of the new acura's
The car overall is beautiful but why that damn truck grill
What HenLin is talking about is actually called a Strut bar. Sway bars are under the cars. Typically, the stiffer the sway bar = less body roll.If you want to hang harder mid corner, you upgrade your sway bars. It does affect ride quality to a noticeable degree as well since you're controlling thelateral movement.

It shouldn't be that hard. go to your local dealership and buy an oil filter. Locate the drain plug and oil filter under the hood. If you buythat contraption I posted on page 1, it makes the job a lot less difficult. It pumps the oil out where the dip stick goes. If you have to access your oilfilter under the car then its a toss up of whether or not to use the oil extractor.
How can I learn to be able to spot a "mint" drive train? I'm bargain hunting for a new whip too but I don't know how to spotthose diamonds in the rough. Tips?Originally Posted by SaNTi0321
Dope thread.
So I picked up my poopbox from the owner today. Now just waiting to get it plated, insured, etc. Car is pretty damn rusted, but the drivetrain is mint. 1991 240sx S13. My first car... Beater status. Paid $250 for it.
Wish-list for the car...
- Repair some of the rust
- Coilovers
- Sway/strut bars
- Some cheap agressive offset wheels. (probably MB Battles)
- New battery
- replace the gas lines cause one of them is leaking
