Re: Type 44 rear sway bar (and some bitching)

Exactly.  I was merely offering my own experience.  If someone asked me,
I'd say don't do it... on a Coupe GT.  However Javad reports positive
experience
on a 4kq.  Different car though (read that: totatlly different rear
suspension).
The CGT's rear suspension member is already designed to be an
anti-roll/sway
device.  This is probably at least part of the non-linear feel I
experienced.
