Default GMG Sway Bars

Hi Mdrums, did you end up getting the GMG sway bars installed on your GTS, and if so, which ones did you use, GT3RS or Turbo; did you need adjustable drop links up front, what was result; happy?

I recently put on GT3 LCAs and running 2.5/2.0 camber, but the car has gone from under steering to heavy over stealing; it's much looser and less balanced than before. I'm hoping to solve this will stiffer bars?

MPSC 245/325 at 32/33 hot.

Ps. Tire temperatures front are even across, in rear the outside is a bit hotter; the car seems to roll over and ride on the outside of one wheel in heavy cornering.

GMG's or GT3 sways wont fit with the rear crossmember. I had Orbit Racing custom make the rear sway. It didn't cost much more and I use the stock beefier cross member and the bar fits perfectly.

Hard to say about your oversteer issue...could be lots of things. I tried MPSC and did not like them at all. Those MPSC N Spec tires lack grip, wear quick, tread chunks off and so forth. What is your rear toe spec? do you have rear toe arms and the Tarrett locking plate that replaces the eccentric bolt?
