Yeah, STs are great bars, though I haven't tried them on an S13.

Too bad you don't drive a Mazda, Racing Beeeaaaaat =P

Whiteline. They're adjustable for stiffness and cost $175 each end.

I've driven cars with white line, ST, and stock HICAS bar. Couldn't even really tell the difference. BTW, if you get the bars together and compare them side by side, it's also hard to tell the difference. (Haven't driven Tanabes, but they seem to be the pick amongst the S13 guys over all the other one's mentioned) And whitelines are adjustable, but do you know what you're doing?

Cheapest route? get the factory HICAS bar, and get the ES bushings.

OR get LARGUS. (really BIG bars)

oh yeah, STs are hard to put on, and crappy fitment. WHitelines are pretty expensive, and harder to put on. Hicas is cheap-o cheap-o, and stock fitment.

don't know about Tanabe.

Uh, for $250 for BOTH Suspsnsion Techniques YES, YOU CAN BEAT THAT.

Largus are the only one I knoe for sure are hollow but they are pricey. Over $400 for the set. they are really popular with drifters in Japan, as I see Largus stickers on tons of cars.

i wouldnt go cusco unless you got money to burn, ST is got to be pretty good, the JIC S13 uses them, and whiteline is cool, if you are ever going to adjust them, but most people wont bother. I would just save my money and get the ST.
