i know im goin to get some sway. i just wanted to know if there was a mod i could do like getting a stiffer rear bar that would keep it from swaying so much at hish speeds. i realize i have two choices. im not putting the bar back on. i just wanted to know if anyone had any experiance with this and had some valuable input. im not looking to fix anything i realize its not going to handle like it did before. so again if you dont have any helpful input then dont bother.

You guys and these sway bar threads drive me nuts...
I wont argue that a removed sway bar is in some way better or safer than one installed for high speed maneuvering... BUT I GUARANTEE that my F-Body with no sway bar will still be WAAAAY safer during a high speed maneuver and can corner harder than say... my wife's suburban! Or 90% of the other cars on the road for that matter!

You took off your anti-swaybar and now you get sway at speeds and want to know how to fix that?
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.

Seriously man, put the bar back on, save the street racing for the slow-*** ricers. If you want to run it do it safely at a track.

This is your first and main problem. Under no circumstances is it OK to street race. I'm not talking about the quick little aggressive launch away from a light like we all do once in a while, I'm talking about the I need to remove the front bar so I can launch hard with a 6000 rpm clutch dump. This is never OK.

BINGO!!!!!
Furthermore, if you don't want smart-*** answers, try not to ask REALLY dumb questions.........

well the more power i add the more of a problem traction is. i just cant get it to hook and i have 335/35 17s on the back. i have lcas, relocation brackets, and adjustable shocks. but it just doesnt want to bite. i can only get a 2.14 60 ft time and spin well past that

how is my question dumb? i just wanted to know if there was any secrets to getting rid of the shake at 150. but nobody wanted to help they just wanted to flame me. which makes you all look very mature. i take it you all got picked on in highschool and it makes you feel better to try and be bad asses on a forum. good luck with that

Check rear swaybar endlinks to make sure they are tight and in good shape, also check tire pressure as well. These will amplify the sway. FWIW my car isn't setup to handle, it has skinnies, and no front sway bar and it doesn't sway at high speeds. Its most certainly no corner carver but it isn't dangerous by any means. Hope that helps.

I was going to leave you alone but now you just asked for it. WTF are you doing at 150 on the street to begin with? Regardless if you have the bar hooked up or not this is unnacceptable. I know you are not fast enough to be going that fast down the track. You need to go buy yourself a turbo neon and just be done with it.
