Hi Guys,
I was wondering if anyone has ever done
a comparison. Assuming that we use a
Coilover set up with the same spring rate
as a T Bar, which set up will ride better or
perform better ?

Thanks

The reason for coilovers isn't so much that they're "better" than the torsion bars, it's that it's MUCH easier to adjust ride height and change the rear spring rate.

It's also possible to acheive much higher rates with coilovers than with the torsion bars readily available (30mm max dia.) if that's what you are after.

Hi Dar951,
Yes I know the covenience that
comes with running coilovers.
Maybe I should have mention
that for street application does
T Bar have an advantage over
Coilovers in terms of ride comfort
& performance.
BTW, I'm running coilovers right
now.

After being set up, they're identical. T-bars have slightly lower unsprung weight.
