    13mm sway bar

    Anyone have an Impreza rear sway bar they don't need? I have a 20mm one but I want the 13mm.

    Any reason you are going to run the sway bar ? I really don't think that that the R needs one, maybe the S will with the ride height and springs

    I am building an S. It will probably be ok without one but I wanted to try it anyway. The 20mm bar I have is just way too much.

    I just figured since many people aren't using them at all that the impact will be minimal and it will still offer the benefits of a stabilizer. The other reason is the current 20mm bar I have now rubs at full lock on the base of the shock mount and pushes the bar into the spring. The lighter bar will have plenty of clearance. Since I will not be racing I set the ride height at 4.75" so I think I will be better with one. Driving it will be the deciding factor but that will be next year.
