wait, you swapped your sway bar for a 95 lumina one?

 

I'd assume your stock one was broken, but i didnt even know 95 lumina's had one and if so, i'd imagine they wouldnt be very 'sporty'.

Apparently the Lumina bar is a bit bigger.......*ideas*

 

Yann, beautiful work man...One suggestion, bigger exhaust tips, just the pipe by itself looks a little 'puny' in the big hole of the exhaust cut out in the bumper.

Do you have the 34mm front sway bar?

 

I have a stock front sway bar (FE3 package)

 

 

OT question though - do you use a translator for your posts here, or do you type the English yourself?

 

Yes :redface: :redface: :redface: I speak always french, and talking in english .. I alway shearch my words.. but I don't take always translator, only when a will make a 'good sentense' (now I don'T take a translator... bad... you see the difference .. lol)

 

Thanks for the comments ! :D

Some cars with the FE3 package came with the 30mm or the 34mm sway bar.

:thinking:

 

 

 

I'm assuming he's referring to "the difference is like day and night" in how much better his car now handles. :biggrin:

 

Having the same sway bars as he does with polyurethane bushings, I would tend to agree with him.

yeah .. sorry it's a french expression :redface: :redface:

 

 

it's totaly different with the OEM swaybar.. I don't know here a can buy a polyurethane bushings..

 

Energy suspension sells them. You can get them at AutoZone. They're $20 for the pair. You might also be able to find them at a Pep Boys, but their stock of energy suspension bushings is usually very limited.
