Yeah they dont make a sway bar specifically for the sprint 2 and I think some of the parts need are for the hotbodies cyclone I just didnt know what else was needed

Any updates on the sway bars? I got my Sprint 2 Drifter but I dont know if you'd really see/feel a difference with them added. I'd like to think it's more for high speed touring cars and racing.

For the most part, that's correct. Leadfoot, you don't really need swaybars. The stock springs are so stiff on the Sprint 2, swaybars seem like overkill.

In fact, I replaced the stock springs on my Sprint 2 with Tamiya soft springs. The chassis seems the better for it. Save your bucks, dude. You don't really need swaybars, unless you are setting it up for speed.

Yeah I didn't think they were needed with a simple drifter like the Sprint. Instead I ordered a light kit for my STi body. I'm loving the light buckets on it. I'll take some pics and posted them tonight in the drift pics thread.

Sway bars or for opposite grip on body roll (lean), this is great for touring, not really needed in drifting. Sway bars will stiffen up your suspension, some drifters use them if more traction is what they want but tuning with shock springs and oil is the way to go.
