bmpower 3 Report post Posted August 23, 2010 Haha yea i can't wait - first track test will be the Taupo day, then the next Intermarque round at Manfield. And yes there will be a celebratory skid done once in this week - on private property of course...! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bmpower 3 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 ^^ This is true - my car gets a very hard time on the track and i've never had any issues. Is it common? I may just do it anyway for the just in case factor... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tire 10 Report post Posted August 24, 2010 I've put that stock sway bar through hell and back and never had it pop off. ?. * And actually have never heard of this happening on all the forumzzz. Have read Glenns thread covering the mod. Oh my god it's Full On! What does it mean!? I noticed mine was popped off about a month ago. I put it back on, and on sat I noticed it had just about fallen off again. Maybe its a touring thing? Anyway, it was really easy. Just need to find a washer that fits over the bar and is bigger than the bush, put it on, drill a hole through the end of the sway bar in front of the washer and put a collet pin through the hole.
