Handling mods GTS

[scatterbrain]

Hi,
I have the 2008 GTS and want better handling.
from what i can gather, I need:

1. lowering springs.
I'll go with WORKS

2. Rear Sway Bar.
Again with WORKS

3. Strut Tower Bar
Tanabe Front Strut Tower Bar for the 4g mentioned on the RRE site fits right?

4. Front sway bar??
Who carries this?

5. Whats an underbrace?
Who makes one? Is it the same as the front lower tie bar from Tanabe on the RRE site?

6. Engine torque damper.
Does the Ingalls one fit?

7. Bushings and motor mounts.
will get the energy suspension bushings and mounts mentioned on the RRE site.

I live in kuwait and have to get stuff shipped here, part by part. Any help and links will be highly appreciated. I have searched but different info is on different threads and instead of asking questions in various places I thought it better to start a new thread.

Front sway bar (ST Suspensions)

F/R Underbrace (check ebay), $119 shipped
Yes, they are the same, same chassis bolting as Eclipses

Ingalls ETD will fit.........if your car is a Ralliart and has a 6G75 Mivec engine (red valve cover)

Energy Suspension is good but most people prefer Prothane (if available)

The Front sway bar is good.
The underbrace: can you link me, i can't seem to find anything.
Will this one fit?

What is the front lower tie bar? Is it another name for a sway bar or something?

Mine is the GTS with the 6g75 but is non mivec. will the ETD not fit? Is there another ETD I can use?

- if it fits a 4g eclipse, then it has the same bolt location as yours.
- if you get the underbrace you do not really need a front lower tie bar
- unless you get the mount bracket custom made, the ETD will not fit the non mivec 6G75.

Thanks G-spot. just compared the front lower tie bar on the RRE site and the underbrace listed on the tanabe website and they look exactly the same. Another question, must i get the front tie lower bar and a front sway bar? Do they go on different locations or is it an either or situation?

Is there a ETD for the non mivec? Is it really important, Can i use something else?

If you can find a deal with both swat bars included that will save you some cash. And i recommend getting coilovers if you really trying to improve on handling. Tie bars and braces is for chassis stiffening/rigidity. sway bars focus's more on body roll.

Sorry to resurrect but how good is the stock strut tower brace and stock rear sway bar on the ralliart? I have a GTS and am wondering if it is a better idea to order the OEM ones from the dealership cause i live in kuwait and ordering parts from the U.S. means paying more than the cost in shipping charges.
