Pretty simple, but make sure you have a sharp drill bit or it will take foreverrrrr!















If anyone has questions let me know..

Oh by the way, this bar has made an unbelivable difference! I love it! Drives so much stiffer and has so much less roll! Worth every penny and every minute of installation! I should have got a sway bar a year ago.

Yeah its 22mm. I bought one from Summit Racing when they had them of clearance for like $96 shipped. The rear sway bar essentially keeps the rear end of the car more flat during cornering. It helps to keep the car more rationally balanced, with just upgraded tires, a factory strut brace, lower frame brace, and the Progress bar my Z24 is pretty neutral and will rotate quite well with trailbraking. I don't know much about the production process, but the bar has crazy tolerances. When I installed mine I kind of had to preload tension on to it to install it with correct spacers and such.

One thing to watch for is your ebrake cable, I've heard of 1 guys snapping, and I feel like mine has stretched somewhat.
