Do I need bigger Rear sway bar mounts


Recommended Posts

Hi there,

 

Just after some feedback on rear sway bars and sway bar mounts.

 

I have a 22mm whiteline rear sway bar I want to fit to my GC8. Do I need to use the big whiteline rear sway bar mounts? Or can I get away with using the stock mounts? Are the stock mounts going to bend?

 

Reason I ask is that I also have a cusco rear chassis bar I want to fit also, because I can fit the rear diffuser to this, because I think it looks cool. However, I cannot fit chassis bar and the whiteline sway bar mounts together without modifying the chassis bar.

 

Be glad to hear if most people just use stock sway bar mounts or use heavier ones.

 

Cheers

Personally used the stock ones for 4-5 trackdays with semi slick tires, never had any issues. Main reason I got the whiteline mounts is because they look bling, justification factor was I didn't want anything to break mid corner on track. 

 

Note that LVVTA's regulations say you don't need cert for aftermarket sway bars or links but you technically do for sway bar mounts. You can get pulled up on it at a WOF and end up needing a full cert costing $500, ask me how I know...

Ok that's really good to know. I wont be doing much track work so i am guessing the stock mounts will be fine for mostly road driving.

 

I absolutely want to stay away from a cert if possible.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
