Will GK sway bars fit on an RD?
Found a crashed GK near me thats being sold for parts. If the sway bars are bigger and better and fit, Im about to go snag those b*tches!

I wouldn't put in anything that isn't engineered specifically for our cars, especially from two different models. The spring ratio is a lot different from the GK.
I'm positively certain that you're better off finding Whiteline, H+R, or Eibach bars.
Just a heads up, I hate to refer you to this site because they sent me the wrong part # and didn't want it to be returned, but shox.com, they are an official dealer and are in contact with their suppliers. They were okay for the other few times, but this one guy wasn't having it when I told him they have the wrong car listed for RD Tiburon. Douche kept insisting that my car was a GK
Make sure if you order from them, to confirm the part numbers.

If it fits, and is bigger, it is the same as if an aftermarket company designed it to fit. If it doesn't fit, then it doesn't fit and the point is moot.

It fits but you have to raise the car up, install it all cept the end links
Lower the car til the tires hit the ground, and install the endlinks
It's a b*tch to do but does fit and its 19mm iirc a decent bump from stock
Def need to find some poly bushings though
