G37XS GTSPEC Struts VS Hotchkis Sway bars
As we all know the g37xS sedans are a bit sloppy on turns. I wanted to invest a bit into the suspention to tighten it up so the car is more neutral on turns. I am already sold on the Hotchkis sway bars because I have heard amazing things. My questions are do the GTSPEC struts / braces have a similiar effect? Are they even worth getting for a leased car? Are they that amazing that I should get them over the hotchkis sways?

sways>strut bar
strut bar is the last mod to suspension needs. I just added my GT strut bar last night. I felt a slight difference but nothing like what sways do. But if your going to add the braces too, I've read its way better choice than sways, but cost more than sways.
also I think the OEM "S" rwd sway bar is better solution than the Hotchkis sways for your X.
not much difference in sizes.

I installed my coilovers first, add the sways a big improvement, then added strut tower bar and that all even better on my G...The sway bars will improve the handeling greatly and the the strut tower will reduce the body flex...also GTSpec has a host of other chasis parts that help your need...

It's really up to you...
A economy purchase will be the oem sway bar. If you want a slight larger bar with adjustable holes, then get Hotchkis.
150 shipped for oem smaller, cost less and will probably perform just as good as Hotchkis.
400 for hotchkis - Slightly larger bar front and rear with adjustable holes, Rear
