Figs / Superpro rear Swaybar setting...and an intro
Hello CL,
I bought a near immaculate 2001 GS430 a couple of months ago with 109k miles (new hid's, perfect leather, great paint) and after maintenance items (valve cover gaskets and trans mount) I have started to mod it. Coilovers, wheels, tires. I have yet to install, but purchased some front RCA's, rear camber adjusters, steering rack bushing kit, and what the thread is about...superpro sways.
After that, motor mounts, ppe headers, a stereo, and I'm done! Well, that's the plan anyway
So on to the question. I usually search before posting, which makes me a long time lurker on this forum, but I can't find the answer: anyone try these superpro rear sways on their stiffest setting? 215% stiffer than stock seems like it could make the rear ultra sqirrely. Might be great for getting sideways or auto-x, but at high freeway speeds..?
Any input would help!

I have a gs300 so it's not that big of an issue. When I go down this windy turn mountain road I'll get the VSC light to come on and the little warning noise with it at times if I'm taking the turns too fast, but you can feel the car able to handle it. If you have the v8 I would think you wouldn't trip the VSC because you have more torque? Anyways you could always use the middle setting if you felt the hardest setting wasnt working for you.
