Default Got my new Sikky sway bar :)

For those who are going to ask, I picked the silky bar because I run wider tires than stock. The f sport is geared for a factory set up. I also have my F on a track times a year and will run a stiffer setting than the F sport can provide. Last I have done a fair amount of business with JE performance and Sikky, I like that they have top notch service, second to non. The JE drift team has been running sikky sway bars for a while now and they are nothing but top notch. After the luck I have had with the Sikky headers on my F, I waited it out for the Sway bar! The headers which have been nothing but fantastic, made 40 wheel, have been on for 15k / 1 year with no problems.
I received the sway bar three days after ordering, item was packaged well. Sway bar and end links look great nothing cheap about it. Il try to get it on over the next week, put up more pics and post some intro opinion about the bar performance. I'm going to start on the 2nd stiffest setting

I paid the introductory price. Call JE, ask for Anthony and he will hook you up with this great addition to your F

Just got it on, but we are in the middle of a snowstorm up here... drove around a little bit and the rear end of the car is very tight. On the second setting the car stays flat and steers sharper. The roads havent been good enough to push the bar to limits of sliding on dry pavent but initial review is two thumbs up. Fitment was perfect and install went very smoothly. cant wait to really put it into some turns.

It's fantastic, makes the car very flat at any speed, fits perfect, quality is all there. If you do get it I recommend the second setting with wider than oe tires

Hey Darbs! how's it goin. Did you get a chance to flog the car yet and really work the bar over or is the weather still holdin you down? I see it's been over a month since your install, still loving the bar I presume?

Yes still loving the bar, I have got to open it up a bit and across the board the car has been improved. Handles much flatter at all speeds, cornering is more stable, on the second setting with mynnarrow snows the car is on the edge of over steering. It's a great product
