price for shipping > performance gains, lol
i'm willing to pay more for tested aftermarket parts instead of having to take some stabs in the dark like i have been, lol |

Well, that brace from them is totally worth it, I had a little issue with them but any future ones the make should be reinforced. I broke mine from stress, but they reimburssed me for repairs and work done. They took note of it and said that I was the first case they ever had of it cracking. My cars suspesion is pretty decent. :p I utilize every last bit of grip I can get.

broke the brace huh, pretty gangsta in my book.
same here 
most people think i'm nuts cause i can keep up with most my friends with all their mods, it's all cause i know how to use what i got, and in the baleno (esteem) game, thats how you have to roll sometimes.
i honestly believe our cars can do more then people give them credit for, and the fact that most of my friends tell me to give it up and buy a civic or something just makes me want to try harder to raise up. |

Has anybody tried the Aerio front stabilizer bar on the Esteem? I am guessing that the Aerio uses a slightler larger version of the esteem sway bar. So the aerio bar should fit the esteem. Thnx.

No one that I know of has tried that. Only one way to find out. Be the first to try it. I have done that a few times and have been plesently surprised. Should not be that hard to find a used bar somewhere.
