Here we go again... I'm sure shortly there will 20 guys in there telling the OP that it's not possible his car handles like crap with the front bar off.

wow im impressed with the feedback you guys gave me. which was crap. i run the car on the street and it just absolutely wont hook up with the front sway bar connected. i do not run thhrough corners fast so that doesnt bother me. i just wanted to know if there was something i could do to get rid of the shimmy it gets at hhigh speed going in a straight line. if you dont have any advice then dont comment because i dont car what remarks you have. i already have coil overs on the front and adjustable ones out back. they do not transfer the weight when the front sway bar is connected and i do not have time to stop and disconnect the bar when i pull up beside someone on the street.

For the love of God....
Pick your poison my friend. You COULD do what I recommend in these cases and leave the bar hooked up for the street and disconnect on endlink for the track there by not having the "sway" and getting your weight transfer, but then you didn't ask that--and every other time one of us mentions that we get blasted for it.
Your choices are very, very, very simple. Put the bar on, leave it on. Take it off, leave it off, or leave it on and disconnect it.... you decide.

oh my ******* god... really? this again
you have 2 choices, the car handles like a VW bus and has so much better weight transfer... or it handles like a fbody should, and launches decently. pick one

Everything you do to get more weight transfer is going to hurt your higher speed stability. Your best bet is to get stickier tires...
Seriously dog, real men don't even drive with front tires, save some weight everything is in a perfectly flat, strait line in this world.

You asked a really dumb question dude. Not us. The only thing that might help not fix but help slightly is da shocks set real hard to help stiffen up the car again. But you are talking 1200 in shocks to do this.
