EIBACH ANTI ROLL KIT, INFINITI G37 by AMPLIFIED
As Promised, I will give my honest review on the EIBACH ANTI ROLL KIT for the Infiniti G37.
As some of you guys know, I own an IP G37 2008. For almost 3 years of owning the car, we have provided some reviews in the past on most of the parts i have on my G37.
I will not be comparing the other available sway bars with these because i want to be subjective and unbias. I will compare them to the OEM sport sway bars.
The eibach is the most versatile out of the all off them.
Having front adjustability helps. I personally drive my G37 daily even though its not a long drive and having my JIC coilovers set at almost the stiffest setting already and having every single underbrace made for the car including the strutbar, i can still notice a big difference on handling and body roll with the Eibach Anti roll kit.
We installed them last night after hours and i wanted to try the softer settting on the front sway bars.
Even at the softer setting, I'm already getting better steering response than from the OEM sway bar, Also at 730 lbs per square inch on the softer setting is already a big improvement from the 416lbs per square inch OEM front bars.
Here's some pictures of the Eibach Front Sways installed. Factory brackets were used but new bushings with grease is provided.
As for the rears, We installed the end links on the middle which is the medium setting. The feedback was instant, The body roll is minimized to almost nothing and the car handles like a dream. All four corners were planted as i was going 60 on a 25mph downhill turn (kids don't try this at home). Minimal oversteer, i expect more from a set that's rated as stiff as these.
Here's some pictures of the rear installed
As for the ride quality, As expected, they are stiffer now and you feel the road more just like any other sway bars but on the front softer setting, It wasn't bad at all. It more than the non adjustable sway bars i had previous but not as much as the other brand. If time permits, we will adjust the settings for front and rear so i can do more reviews and feedbacks for you guys.
Overall, as a owner of a G, i would strongly recommend these because having so far these are the only front adjustable Sway bars in the market.
It gives you the option of going mild to aggressive. Having them on aggressive is not for everyone because it can affect ride quality and promote over steer so these are ideal for your daily driver/weekend warrior type.
I will not claim I'm a suspension expert or a race car driver but my honest opinion is stated above having basically tried almost every available suspension MOD for the G37. IMHO sway bars upgrade is still the best, most noticable modification you can do that gives you instant feedback for your G37, coupe or sedan.
Feel free to post questions or any reviews for those who has them already.
thanks
Lou

Thanks for your review and opinions on the new product Lou. Since you actually drive a G regularly and have many of the parts you sell on your own car, any reviews are appreciated as you probably have much more experience with product comparison than most of us.
Are you aware of any manufacturer that has any heavier aftermarket sway bar end links in development yet? I have another brand of aftermarket sways and they are killing my end links. I noticed them leaking grease this week when I was installing my front camber arms.

Lou,
rather than give your OPINION on these versus others, could you tell me which are the stiffest? thats not really a question of opnion, more of specs from each company.
(Stillen, Hotckis, Eibach) im aware the eibach has the benefit of the adjustability in the front but im just wondering about stiffness.

Lou,
The sway bar looks great and I'm sure it performs awesome. But we need a set developed for the XAWD. The entire Northeast has been waiting on this mod for years. I'm sure R&D would pay for itself.
