Hey guys, I have been looking at some new sway bar links. My suspension is really creaking, and its not the bushings. I know my sway links have turned to crap a long time ago, and I think the car is starting to show some resistance when settling into right turns. My Eibach pro kit plus is under 2 years old and has seen around 30k miles. I think I should be seeing much better handling than this. So I started searching and the best that I found for the money were these on eBay.
They're not meant for our cars, but I just need to measure my buddy's WRX links and see how long they are compared to ours. If its similar, I'll probably get them and let ya'll know how they work out.

Not bad, I'm actually upgrading my rear sway bar to a Whiteline 24MM here shortly, and I'm going to use their endlinks, which look a bit better than those. More info to come.

yeah, I think I'll get these. for the price, as long as they are long enough. Redz, are you talking about a new SFR part? or something from another manufacturer? I'd consider waiting for a SFR part.

I was talking about the MFR Whiteline. I can see what's available through Seoulfulracing though. Good idea.
Whiteline makes some NICE stuff for us. I have their rear strut bar.

I am pretty sure there are aftermarket links for Tiburons here in Korea but again I am not really familiar with 96-01 Tiburon parts yet smile.gif
I will do my research and let you know guys
Thanks!

cool. My main concern is that when I installed my Eibach sway bars, the stock links took sucha beating I don't think the joints are working properly anymore. I know the inner nut stripped on 3 of my links, and I had to use vice grips to take them off. These look much more manageable. My main concern is price. I know Evo links work on our cars, but most aftermarket evo links sell for about $150 a set. These are 1/3 of that price, and appear to offer comparable performance. I'm sure they're not as good on a track, but for street use, I mean.

ok, i am 99.9% sure those will work fine with the fronts. the adjust-ability is way within the length of our stockers up front.
the rears though, im not so sure. the ones in the rear are much longer.
