2002 1.6 auto rear sway bar upgrade.

Hi all,

chasing details for rear sway bar upgrade....I cant seem to find any details for a BJ.

Do other model astina sway bars fit my 02 hatch.
Whiteline show parts but nothing for a BJ???


Any help would be great.

Cheers

Whiteline doesn't make them for the older cars. Hence they not being on the website anymore. You'd have to find old stock somewhere, or buy a different brand internationally from USA or Japan.

the SP20 sway bars are a cheap upgrade.... larger than the 1.6... I don't remember if the 1.8 bar is bigger or not, but why bother when SP20 is the best standard production bar you can get

The 1.8 bar is pathetic, I went to the wholesale suspension rear sway bar and they perform quite well, it is soon getting replaced with the racing beat item as I can't use the AXR clunk fit brackets with the wholesale one.

Plenty of options around. I've got a set of Mazdaspeed swaybars for sale if you're interested.
