Hey every one, here is my dilema........

My 190E 2.6 is getting an engine swap with a 1995 E320 engine, so while that's being done I also wanted to upgrade the handling of the vehicle so it would take corners very well. I upgraded my shocks to Bilstein Sports on the front and back, I also am putting SL springs on my car for a stiff ride to reduce body roll. I just ordered a 300E Limo sway bar for the front of my car, but I don't know what the the thickest sway bar I can get for the back. I want less body roll, but I don't want any understeer, so the sway bars have to be some what equal. I was wondering what kinda of sway bar I should purchase for the back. I was looking into a 2.3-16 or 2.5-16 back sway bar, but I don't know if the gauge is equivalent to the front. I need a rear sway bar that can fit back there just fine. Does any one have any suggestions about what kind of rear sway bar I should get?

Get an EVO II rear sway bar. Do a search on this forum because just this week GSXR posted a company that sold these.

The EPC confirms that the EVO II rear bar part number is 201-326-37-65. And it is available in Europe, as shown at this URL:

If you want one, email the nice folks at www.speed-autoteile.com (Roland or Christian, email is Speed8467@aol.com ). It should cost about ~$75 USD, plus a wad for S&H to the US... probably another ~$75 USD. Still, ~$150 for a genuine EVO II rear bar ain't that bad. Could probably get the price down with a group buy to save on S&H. Oh, and they take credit cards, no fiddling with expensive (!) bank wire transfers like most other companies in Europe (AMG, Jehnert, Wiechers, etc).

The part numbers for the rubber bushings have rolled to a 210 part number, which thankfully is a LOT cheaper, and easily availble in the USA... 210-326-08-81 (two required).
