I was talking to GM -- and he's putting a set on his race modified SPG, which is only for the track...

But, he's keeping the sway bars off his street SPG simply because of the fact that you can feel all the road vibrations. Over bumps, railroad tracks for example, I've heard the car has no flex in the back as it usually does, and jolts from side to side. The ride is definatly more harsh. You can use the boomerang method, like salesmen do, with your girlfriend. When she says she gets her headaches, show her how well the car handles. Squeel those tires around corners! Passengers, through my experience anyway, are impressed by the handling of my SPG. She'll definatly be grinning when you take a 90 degree turn at 45mph ... 45mph to keep it civil ( :

Personally.. my girlfriend loves cars and everything that comes with them. I will be getting the rear SAS sway bar hopefully sometime soon, and I know she won't mind. She wants me to get a pair of MOMO T-2000 racing seats. She's sat in them at the store. I've told her that after a long trip you will be sore from the ride. She doesn't care. What a trooper.

Invest into some pillows and plastic bubble wrapping, wrap her up in the plastic bubble wrapping, and surround her in pillows. She'll be sure to have a comfy ride all packed up ( :

As for the Abbott rear bar. Most of their products are quality, but the rest is just copies of other companies made in order to compete with them. I've heard controversy over the SAS vs Addco sway bars. SAS is "supposed" to be better due to the thickness of it. If you have the Addco, it will be fine. If you have the SAS, you can't get too much better. If the Abbott is actually better, better means better handling, harsher ride (most of the time anyway). Any sway bar should do the trick.

My two cents

What other mods do you have? Any pics?

Good luck!
