Default stabilizer bar

hi
if i compare a regular v6 and a pony version both equipped with 17 tire
is there a big difference in handling because the pony have a stabilizer bar in the rear?

thank

Default RE: stabilizer bar

Not a huge difference unless you do some quick lane changes or slalom around something then the diff is obvious. The standard v6 no swaybar setup will lift and wallow around like your towing a trialer. Aftermarket rear sway bar is easy to install for about 100--200$. a cheaper, lighter duty option is a GT takeoff set-up that can be had for about 50-75$. I went with the Hellwig rear sway. there was a definite HOLY S&^% what a difference! moment after the install when I tried some quick slalom moves and the rear end sat right down and the car was like it was on rails. Great mod.
