FWIW. I tried several emails, phones calls, call-back messages and never heard a word from Hotchkis. Went with Eibach.

Thanks, Dieharder. My car is an '05 former garage queen (33K). I just want to tighten things up a bit without going broke. I was leaning toward Eibach til I saw these.

Anybody tried Hotchkis sway bars? If so, what's the verdict?

Easy install, they work as advertised, and they really open up the engine bay without that stupid rod in the way. Got them through Amazon with C-card rewards. Nice!

Maybe check out some U-tube videos for the products you're planning on using. You will, however, have to figure out which guys actually know what they're doing, and which ones like making home videos with their phone. It's not that hard to figure out. Also, if you're using, say, a Meguiar's...

I think the complete lack of responses is everyone's polite way of saying....."go buy another car". If you stay with a S197 platform, yours might be a good parts car. Of course I can say that because my '05 'vert just turned 31,000 miles. What you're contemplating sounds like a lot of money...
