Sway bar and end link opinions please

[H3br3w_Ham3r]

We'll over the winter I'm going to be looking to do a few things to be ready for next year. One of those things is purchase new sway bars and end links front and rear.

1. Which set of sway bars do most of you prefer. At this point in time I'm leaning in the direction of the COBB bars over the Hotchkis ones.

2. The only end links I could find are the AWR ones..... People complain that the rears don't fit the stock bar. Would they fit an aftermarket bar better? Is the same thing true about the fronts?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Does this mean you are keeping the car? I am also interested in this question. My car needs less roll.

Haha I'm always looking for something else to drive. If I got a great deal on a STI I'd jump in a second but as long as I have my car I'll try to improve it. Plus less roll means you can fit more tire under the car without rubbing! 285's here I come!

I'm running the COBB rear sway bar right now and I think it's the best money spent for AutoX. It really helps with the roll and the car rotates much better through the corner. I left the front bar stock as making it stiffer would cause the car to push more though the corner and may neglect any benefits from the rear bar.

As for the end links, I'm kind of curious myself to how the AWR pieces work. I haven't really read to a conclusion on whether or not they will fit the stock or aftermarket sway bars.
