Custom built (by Andris Laivins) 3-piece front sway bar - SOLD

This is the ultimate NSX front sway bar!

If you are a serious track guy, autocrosser, or simply want the flattest and best handling NSX out there, this is what you need. I competed with my NSX at a national level in autocrosses and pro solos, and after trying a couple of different commercially available bars, I went the route of having a custom engineered bar build by the incredible Andris Laivins (http://www.laivins.com/), who supports the CJ Wilson Race Team and others.

The gist of it is as follows:

- 3 piece bar.
- Center section is 1.25" in diameter, hollow, with 0.25" wall thickness.
- Adjustable arm lengths with 6 adjustment positions, giving a bar rate range from 660-960 lbs/inch.
- Comes with spherical bearing mounts. No rubber, no polyurethane, no squishing, no squeaking, ultimate precision.
- High grade spherical mount adjustable end links.

There is nothing on the market that comes even close to this bar in terms of performance and adjustability. This will fit ALL years of NSXs, but you cannot fit the spare tire anymore.

Here is my write-up on NSXPrime after I installed the bar: http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/161793-custom-built-front-sway-bar-from-laivins-racing

And don't just take my word for it. Here are the notes from the DAL Motorsports race team for their NSX. See point #6 where they talk about sway bars: http://ojas.net/nsx/mirror/dal

THE BAR HAS BEEN SOLD. Please lock this thread.
