Hotchkis sways installed
Finally got Hotchkis sway bars installed on my G37xS sedan yesterday. My first impression was that the car felt so much tighter and as others have mentioned, much less lean in turns. Haven't had a chance to take it on the highway to see the difference yet but will be doing that this week. I had Stillen sways on my 05 G35 coupe and was quite pleased with that setup so I was excited to get the Hotchkis sways on my sedan. I really believe that upgraded swaybars are one of the best upgrades for the money. If any of you sedan owners are on the fence about getting new sways, especially awd owners, go ahead and pull the trigger. You'll be happy you did.

I've noticed most of the AWD folks are installing sways is this a recommendation for the AWD or is it advisable for any sedan owner? I have a 2010 sedan with Premium and Sport would it be a good idea for me to get sways? I've been looking at some Hotchkis sways have heard good things about them.

hollywhip, do it. you won't regret it. There's a group buy going on now in a few threads down. RWD is like $310 shipped. I just put them on my AWD and it truly is that good.

I'm getting the Eibachs, since mine is a RWD and I want the adjustability in the front. But in all sway bars make a huge difference in handling. See the following video

Thanks for the replies understand your going with Eibachs due to the front being adjustable seems like there's a lot of Hotchkis fans here I know the HK are adjustable in the rear and have been told the middle setting is the way to go. Now you have me wondering is the front being adjustable that important as to change my mind off of HK's

OK to anybody with the AWD sedan GET THE SWAY BARS!!! They are hand down the best mod for the sedan. If i could pick only one mod it would definitely be sways. The car feels more balanced, it feels like you have more control I love them. In general i think Infiniti should just buy hotchkis sways and put them on as a stock option.

Looking to do the same on my G37Xs. What is the setting? Think its firm in the front and medium (middle hole) for the rear? Does it come with all the necessary parts needed. I am having this done at local shop, they quoted $90/hr and its about an hour to do. Anyone can recommend a shop in the NYC area or close by? thanks

I have them full stiff in the front and middle in the rear and what everyone is saying is true. Changes the whole character of the car. Im not modding this car as I have my previous. I choose to do Hotchkis sways, xpipe, and front lip as the only mods I will do to the car! These are a must on all G's!

anyone using them with the softest setting both front and rear?
i ask because i have horrible roads here, with uneven surface and lots of potholes and want some compromise!
