Titan Sway Bars & Megan EZ Coilovers Installed on 99 SC400
I loaded up the trunk and headed to my friends shop on Thursday to get Titan f/r sway bars, Megan EZ coilovers and f/r rotors and pads installed. Everything went good until the front sway bar went in.
The sway bar was pushed up against the oil filter when set to stiff and wasn't much different in the other position. My buddy looks at it and says I need shorter end links. I'm thinking that I will have to put the stock bar back until I can order some adjustable end links. In the meantime my friend said he had an idea and had phoned his parts supplier to deliver a set of 2000 Civic end links. Within a half hour the parts were delivered and lo and behold they were a direct bolt in, same bolt configuration and the correct length. The sway bar is now at the perfect angle with plenty of clearance from the oil filter. I asked him how he came up with the idea of Civic end links??? He said he remembered the Civic links are shorter then the Lexus ones but wasn't sure about the bolt angles. He said a lucky guess.
I don't think so, he's amazing!
Now for the good part. The car handles and rides excellent! It's more responsive, has little body roll and drives like a sports car. It doesn't feel like it's the same car.

The sway bars change the handling characteristics big time over just coilovers.

Car looks great. I am about to purchase a 93 SC400 and plan on upgrading to the Megan EZ coil overs. Coil overs are new to me. Do you remove the oem springs and just adjust the coil
overs to height?
What exhaust / mufflers are those. How do they sound? Sound Clip maybe?
