Re: Factory Swaybar removal, what will happen????? had mine off since the 2nd day i've owned the car, truthfully I didnt notice any change, the front end dives a lot more and darts around if you have to stab the brakes, but thats about it. If you dont drive stupid you wont have any problems

Re: Factory Swaybar removal, what will happen????? By taking off just the front sway bar you will cause oversteer. Something you already have by just planting your right foot. By taking off just the rear you will increase understeer
Why would you want to take it off? The only reason i hear of people doing that is for offroading.

If I added a front and rear LG Motorsports swaybars to what I already have for suspension mods (check sig) would it be worth it for a pure street car?

Re: Factory Swaybar removal, what will happen????? You remove the front sway bar to reduce weight and to improve weight transfer. I went from no sway bar to the G2 setup, and it is awesome. I love the way the car drives now. But, once I get my Hals on, I might try and tighten them up and remove the front bar again and see what happens.
You shouldn't have to worry about oversteer as long as you don't punch it going around corners.
