Anyone running the ST (lime green) sway bars? Notice a difference?

Just wondering if anyone runs these and if there's actually a dif in body roll and stiffness? The price is right and I always go best bang for buck but if it's a useless upgrade I'd rather save the 400$ and put it toward my coilovers.

Little background on the car it's an FRS (duh) and I compete in time attack along with open lappping days but it's my DD as well. Still on stock suspension but upgrading to coils soon.

Thanks

^^ What time attack series? If it's OTA, I highly doubt they're worth the PIP value. I would just save the money and get the coilovers sooner (or buy better ones).

CSCS, planning on switching to OTA next season because they actually have fair and competitive classes based on your cars actual specs, not if it has a dashboard or not lol not to mention more mosport days cause im in oshawa and thats convenient

If you haven't been on the GP track, you definitely need to fix that

If your end goal is coilovers, I would still skip the sway bars unless you're trying to adjust the balance at one end of the car.
