Who on the board has sway bars, and are they worth the money?

Sway bars are excellent mods for the money. They offer decreased body roll which increases driver confidence in corners. As a plus, they do not affect driveability or ride quality.
The ones we sell are compatible with all years:

It depends on what sort of driver you are. If are you somebody who likes high speed cornering you would be very pleased with lack off body roll.
But if you often drive on bumpy roads you will have problems with loosing a part of your independent suspension.
I myself have track sway bars from Dali Racing. I drive my NSX both on track and to daily work.

I also have the Dali sway bars, with the H&R springs, now the car feels like its on rails, money very well spent.
Hi, Cyan NSX
Like you I was driving around with OEM bars till 3 weeks ago. I changed to the Comptech bars, and they really reduse body roll to a minimum. I pushed my car pretty hard on Saturdays track event, and the car felt more under control than before.
Highly recommended mod if you ask me.
However I feel the car is stiffer now than before the bars were installed. Feels like my suspension is 1 step harder than it used to be. Just FYI and for what it's worth

Which setup are you guys running. There seems to be a Street Version and a Track Version. How is the track version on daily number driving? I see the Dali bars are non adjustable while the comptech ones are.
My set-up is:
Comptech sway bars - front one set to middle position, rear to softest setting.
Car handles very neutral when pushed really hard in turns at the track. The Comptech's only come in one version, which is 3 way adjustable
A very good set-up for both street and track
Trond.

What are the settings Science of Speed suggests?
Start with the setting that approximates stock balance front to rear (varies between manufactures), and adjust from there based on your preferences and suspension modifications.

I have the Dali street/track bars and there are 4 settings. I haven't noticed any difference but then again there's no place for me to test it(safely). I'll try some twisty roads out here soon enough at which point I'm sure they'll be what everyone says they are.
I believe that they are worth the money as well.

I have the Dali Street/Race or Street/Track. . .whatever they're called.
And I love'em. Car feels much more planted in the corners.
My settings are for the front, well, they're installed, and rear is set to the middle setting. Car is very neutral as described by a Speed World Challenge GT competitor (who's in second place by the way).
