what part of the vehicle do you find the most lacking?
is it the handling?
is it the performance / sound?
is it aesthetics?

your 3 choices are so different from each other that only you can answer this question.

answer: 4 PORT!:banghead: haha i like the look, sound could definitely be better (stock besides intake box mod). i guess sway was a good mix of performance and engine bay look. idk if a RB duct would be worth the cash though.:(

you can't see the sway bars from the engine bay. Welll, not unless you're REALLY looking for them and they're a nice bright red color like my Tanabe sways.
Strut bars are much more noticeable. ;)

I have the MS bar and in order to get the cover to fit, I had to dremel the slots on the cover a bit to make room.
not sure about the Greddy bar.

look in the F/S subforum, you'd be surprised how cheap some of those get sold for.


although, if we're talking mods: Sway bars are a MUCH greater upgrade then strut bars. (not to complicate your decision any more)

I guess I should ask: how much are you willing to spend?

I was looking at sways, idk so much about install or endlinks and whats good or bad. ive been doing some reading. are endlinks necessary? from what i read crappy links come back to haunt you. but idk. theyre a bit pricey.

I would go RB sways first, it will give the best improvement and goes well with the stock spring / shock combo.

I agree with Jedi, endlinks are not necessary.

okay ill prob do the RB sway w/o the endlinks, i can always add them later. im guessing ill find a diy on install. thanks guys.

should i expect to feel an improvement from my stock? i have the base 05 AT, i think the gt's had an upgraded sway. (yellow dot i believe)

I'd go RB sways. Maybe cuz they're on my list, and I just wish I had 'em.
