Swaybar install - 2010 AWD Sport
We all know how small the rear sway bar is on the AWD, so I decided to replace it with a larger bar!
With the help from a fellow forum member (hispeed-lowdrag) I purchased his OEM Sport rear bar, got it today and installed it. Took about 1/2hr to install, just have to lower rear exhaust hangars and remove 8 bolts.
btw sway bar is from a 2009 G37S coupe and fits perfect!
took a quick drive and car feels more neutral, everything else is stock for suspension.
I don't have any pics from the install, but here are some comparison shots of the 2010 OEM bar and the 2009 coupe sport OEM bar.

Yea I noticed how small the rear bar was on the car when doing an oil change on a lift. The front bar is pretty beefy but I still can't believe how small the rear is, my Alty SE-R had a bigger rear sway. This has got me thinking about the next oil change I do, might have to get one!

Anyone know why infinitiparts lists two available sway bars for the sedan? One for 2WD and one for 4WD. Is one thicker than the other?
What about "S" 2WD version? Is the "S" 2WD sway bar the same as the non "S" 2WD?

Can you describe the "more neutral" a bit more? Does it make a noticable difference at highway speeds when making turns? Are you saying this helps with the huge understeer we got?

on my 2008, I only needed to order the bar and two bushings. The brackets are reused.

I have a 2010 X sedan, and I'm looking to minimize body roll on turns. I heard that the sway bars are the way to go. I was recommended to get Hochkins, they were around $375. Will I notice a great difference in body roll? Is it an easy swap between the factory one? Will it void my warranty?
