Want reduced body lean

If I wanted to reduce body lean in turns and curves (city driving) what part or parts should I consider adding or replacing? 01 Sun Fire Coupe SE 2.2.

sway bars! they'd probably help the most.

springs, shocks, and urethane bushings couldn't hurt either

2nd on swaybars, the Eibach kit is grub, more than likely you dont have one from the factory, so you'll need the brackets for the fronts. There isnt a rear installed on the car from the factory, how ever, there is a beam welded into the inside of the axle beam for FE2 suspension and i think FE3 (for 03+)

He probably has FE1 suspension. Would definately consider the Eibach kit if I were him. Eibach makes their products to be mostly idiot proof, and what most people will want on the average.

don't be intimidated by installing the front bar, its not very difficult if you drop the subframe.

Sway bars will get rid of bodyroll, without affecting the rest of the ride. Springs and struts will lessen bodyroll as well, but result in a much firmer ride (which is good IMO), but can get tiresome depending on the road conditions in your area.


15.3 @ 89.97mph, 14's on the way?

Completely agree, im using prokit/agx's on mine, and its pretty good until you get into some bumpy crappy road areas.
