Godspeed Sway Bars G37 Sedan RWD

So i decided to pull the trigger on these, even though i heard that “cheap sway bars break and suck". Yes, they’re cheap. No, they’re not one of the big name brands out there in the car scene… but damn are they a lot of bang for the buck Honestly, my favorite mod yet. i think i paid approximately 120 bucks for them shipped to my front door. Fitment was great, parts seem legit, no creaking or anything after install. They made a huge difference in handling. car feels much more stable on the road now and I’m super happy with them. The only thing that i wasn’t impressed with was the coating. I noticed they didn’t have a strong and durable finish whenever I was installing them. I set the bar on the garage floor and it took the red paint, or whatever it is, right off. looks like it didn’t go through the primer though so i could care less… anyways. I’ve pulled the corner wheels off the ground pulling into steep places and they didn’t pop or break so i feel like they’ll handle any daily situation. should be fine on the track if you’re into that type of stuff as well. put the car through some hard turns at a high rate of speed and i didn’t notice and understeer or over steer so i think godspeed did good with the stiffness from front to rear.

Pros:
hardware
fitment
price
handling improvement

cons:
not a very strong coating
non adjustable ( if you’re looking for that)

Here is how they came packaged Inside a big box stamped “godspeed”. this is the only picture i have… sorry

I will continue to update the thread with how they wear. I’ve had them on for about two weeks and they have been tested…. no regrets here

Here is the listing on eBay. I bought them from this vendor as well.

Vendor: TSperformance

I don't believe the sway bars are the same for the AWD. Also, I bought them from a shop that sells on eBay. Just search on there. Buy them from someone who has really good feedback.

I don't have any real life comparison. But I went by a chart that I found on the370z.com. They feel like a big improvement and the ride isn't bad so I'm happy with them. Especially for the price.

So far so good! Actually got up underneath the car today and they seem great. The coating is holding up find to normal daily driving. Car Still doesn't sway much haha

Even though I have an AWD I am going to pull the trigger. If they don't fit I will ship them to you Brad for free for the $118.

Had these on my s2000. Very good solid bar. The coatings sucked so i had them powder coated. Very cheap effective mod but non adjustable if thats your thing
