Dan, so you saying that ROW M030 strut/springs is also too soft to work effectively with GT3 sways? I like the dampling so far, but wish less body lean, so I was hoping GT3 sway would cure it without too much affect on ride perspective..

What, you thought I was going to sell you old crappy stuff?? Both sways and end links were brand new from this summer.

follow up - for those on the fence, if you push hard in the corners... and I mean hard, these bars are amazing. The rear hooks up and the car litterally shoots into the turn. I think I can feel the front inner tire coming off the ground (or at least what feels "light") and the traction is not comprimised at all... it just bites and drives... very very noticable IMO

also removed a lot of the pitchyness (sorry for lack of better term) to the nose on accell and hard braking into turns. With the set up I had it was WAY better that US Stock, but this has really transformed it.

Its warm and sunny today and I was out playing around... I have no doubt these bars are worth every penny. i hope I get enough use oout of them before I end up without a P-Car, but I will never regret taking this step.

driving on severe road junction missmatch its really rough... I can tolerate a lot, but there was a really bad section that was really tough to handle...to be fair, its really bad road... but it was more than uncomfortable with this set up...
Daily driving is no problem, handles normal freeway stuf AOK !!
