Well, the new bushings arrived so I decided to re-bush and reinstall the rear bar. After driving without it for more than a week (it's nice to live in Florida), I wanted to see what it was like installed again. I must say, I never realized what a stable platform the car is with both front and rear bars installed. Thus, I have decided to keep and run both front and rear bars on the car. Thanks everyone for your input.

Had this in another thread but equally relevant here as recommended reading.


Also this one. The tuning is suspension, not engines.

I've never run a rear bar on my six conv, never felt I needed it. And I've done a few autocrosses and track days. I will say I went from 205's to 225's in the back and it helped the car feel a lot more neutral, before that it could easily oversteer but it also used to have stiffer rear springs. Running 200lb rear springs now.
