would a se-r front sway bar fit?
i am just wondering if the se-r front sway bar would fit our cars? cause i was just in the 6th thread and was reading up on a guy that bought the se-r sway bar for his 6th gen, but i dont think he has installed it yet. im not sure if this is a repost since i couldnt find any info on it, if this is a repost sorry.

well i was just taking a big wack at this, but i guess the it wont fit. i havnt actually looked at how the 5th gen fsb is, so i was just asking. o well, looks like we have another loss
Has anyone fabricated an aftermarket FSB for our car? Has anyone tested the strength of the stock FSB? Can anyone compare the difference between a stronger aftermarket FSB to a stage I or II LTB?
FSBs and LTBs can't be compared. They do completely different things.
A FSB will reduce body roll and spread cornering loads across both sides of the suspension. Getting a bigger/stronger one will increase understeer/decrease oversteer.
A LTB just stiffens that part of your frame. Like all chassis stiffening, it will help keep your handling more consistent, sharpen your response, and make your car ride a little smoother and track better over imperfect surfaces.
EDIT: Actually the LTB can also add a slight bit of understeer, but that'd only be because your front end would no longer be twisting under cornering and thus helping to keep the inside wheel on the ground. I don't know about you, but I'd rather keep my frame straight and make my suspension keep that wheel on the ground. It seems to be a small price to pay for the benefits.

Unfortunatley I doubt the Alti SE-R bar would fit the A33. The A34 and Alti SE-R both share a common 61" front track. The A33 is only 59.8"-60.2" depending on which tires are used.
