y must i ask a noobish question?

k...is it smart to get a whiteline rear sway bar and nothing else...will this do ANYTHING if not putting it on with other handeling thing ie springs struts etc...i might get a strut bar in the front...are these even worth spending the money on for someone who is on a low budget and wants to get exhaust and audio?

Don't get it, you can't see it and not really worth it if you're just getting it and not springs/struts.

da_hourse: I think you feel the difference because you have a Gen2, which is a much smaller car.

I'm not qualified to answer as I got everything installed at once. However, here's one members rave review and he has stock susp.

I (heart) swaybars -- Thank you, CTMotorsport!

It has been said that the most bang-for-your-buck suspension mods are wheels & tires, shocks, and sway-bars.

it's for perfomance, nothing to show but taking turns at higher speed and not looking/feeling like you're going to flip over BUT it's better if you change your suspension while you're at it, then you'll have some what max performance
me waiting on my springs and looking for struts before strut & sway bar

if you're doing low buget, like your sound and exhuast, i would only get a front strut bar...but if you're racing or like to increase your turning and better drving on bumpy roads => do the suspension & bars
