Well there’s a lot more to it than that.. sway bars can actually decrease the maximum cornering force, trading maximum grip for predictable loss of grip.. which can be more important.
Well you've got the yamaha Celica so it's not as good as the older 1.8 Celica that had the glass headlights instead of plastic and the front looked better with them too compared to the plastic headlights Celica tbh
For those who drive a FWD car, and actually take it to the limits on mountain roads, you need both for maximum handling performance. I only got the rear sway bar because people all over say it’s better just getting a rear, however, I notice that on less sharper turns and on roads with less turns that this is mainly true, however, there are also roads that have turn after turn after turn, and they are quite sharp. The upgraded rear sway bar does only half of what my car can potentially do. Getting a front sway bar on the FWD car took it to the next level. I noticed easier and longer ability to rotate around the corner without a hassle, while with only and upgraded rear, i would understeer way too much try to flee or keep up with other cars. Get both sway bars for the mountains!
@@vellusk@vellusk pretty sure that the new fl5 have already a good handling. Sway bars will make it even better. But please love your car and not pushing it to its limits.
Modifying the sway bar is a good move to improve the performance and safety of the car. Many owners can achieve the effect they want by changing the rear sway bar, but for racing cars or more demanding modifications, changing the front and back sway bars together will also bring a great surprise
I never understood roll bars before, always thought bigger was better, but heard (on a Fiero forum) that going to a smaller bar can improve handling. Now I know why.

I have a thicker rear sway on my under steering Celica. I been telling folk to do this for a while. And hard suspension springs. Softer settings at the back harder at the front. Like 90/80% f/r also almost max tiring rating psi in the tires. Not over inflated. Just hard setting. Drop the psi at the front for more corner grip. Harder for more accel n top speed. These are my experiment settings for FWD cars. Works for me. Would take advice for any other settings. I just play with numbers and feel out my vehicle response.

Yup, Our (HalferLand Performance) 550whp 06' Accord had major understeer. Add a Acura TL Type S 20mm rear sway and now it handles like a dream with an actual hint of oversteer, just enough to get the rear to rotate and point the front...plus we run 245's squared all around
I used to own a 8th gen Civic Si sedan with tein coilovers. While competing in autocross it was incredibly difficult to get the car to rotate with the stock rear roll bar, so I installed the eibach rear roll bar. I noticed that the car rotated better but at the same time it was more difficult to balance the car on the edge of grip through faster corners. It ultimately helped my time but it was definitely a more loose setup than before.
I have been looking to upgrade the anti roll bars in my Volvo for a long time now. Hard suspension, but still too much body roll. Now I know a basic outline of what to look out for! Thank you very much!
I actually swapped to a smaller front bar on my Outback. It gave me a bit more body roll, but it also felt more stable in long corners, like a highway off-ramp. It's not the optimal setup for racing, but for a pure daily, it was perfect.
...now I got it why my RC buggy which has a thick swaybar at the rear has TOO MUCH front grip that it allows the car to do a traction roll! Thank you! Been looking for this answer for days and can't believe I found it here :O

@Vigilante It's to add more oversteer characteristics. The front roll isn't too bad, but the rear is pretty soft from factory. The B8/8.5's are awd with rwd bias. They are pretty front heavy, though, so they benefit from the stiffer rear end.
We took our swaybar out of our 2015 MDX Acura. The ride in the back was so stiff. I couldn’t stand it now. It’s like I’m riding on a cloud. I don’t need it. It works. Took me four years to figure it out.

I ended up needing thicker bars front and rear. Front because even with Eibach Pro Kit springs on Koni Yellows turned all the way stiff the body roll was enough to bottom out the outside front tire and push cornering camber so hard positive I was pretty much just riding the outside shoulder lugs while 2/3rds of the tire was doing nothing, even though I was running as much front camber as I could; I was fine on moderate turns but plowing and hopping in hard turns before the stiffer front sway bar, now it's fixed. Stiffer rear sway bar was to balance out the understeer from the stiffer front sway bar in moderate turns. I wish the rear bar could have been matched to the Eibach front bar, but Eibach don't make a rear for my 3rd Gen Mazda 3 and Corksport don't make a front bar. Not ideal for balance to mix sway bar brands, but it was the only solution I could find at the time.
I have a stiffer sway bar on my Q50. The body roll on the back end was horrific, and led to understeer in a lot of cases. The stiffer bar corrected all that.
this is why i liked upgrading my miata progressively. i took it to autoX a couple times in stock-ish form on normal 500 tread wears and now she’s on öhlins, 17x10’s, fat wing, fat sway bars. suffered hard from understeer with no camber

Yes and no it depends a lot on time speed weight acceleration deceleration whether you're transferring from a chicane or in a long swooping Corner versus an immediate 90°. There are so many variables it depends on the track that's why we have adjustable sway bars. 😉 the Pinnacle of all sway bars is the in Cabin adjustable sway bar so nice but illegal on a lot of circuits
So with rc cars, same concept applies, exept I will throw different away bars on for different surfaces. Carpet has more grip so stiffen the back so it will rotate, it's incredible how much it will change with a very small adjustment
But it depends on the phase of the turn. Softer front gives more grip under braking, but softer rear gives you more grip under acceleration. You want soft front, stiff rear under braking, stiff front, soft rear under acceleration.
A stiffer one also doesn't allow the suspension to articulate like it should, so bumps beat the crap out of the tires and framing. Consider your bound and spring rates, and the track conditions.

But it depends on the phase of the turn. Softer front gives more grip under braking, but softer rear gives you more grip under acceleration. You want soft front, stiff rear under braking, stiff front, soft rear under acceleration.
Active swaybars ftw
finally some science
No wonder Hert said he justs takes out the front sway bar when he goes drifting
Subscribed
Also depends on spring rate
When i added a rear sway bar on my 2003 Mustang, it became a frickn drifter on wet ground
If you add a stiffer front bar it will reduce the amount of oversteer, or if the rear bar has adjustment holes you can try runs that are further out
Give me that Subaru right now.
remember Gordon Murray, probably the most genius car designer, hates rear anti roll bars😅
Slight adjustment, you can’t change weight transfer, only weight transfer distribution but yes this makes sense!
