do i get/need a swaybar?

[imske3000]

I am about to upgrade my suspension to Bilstein B14 coilovers, while it is in the shop I am going to get camber plates and control arms. My question is… is it worth getting the sway bar with these mods?

Note: this is a daily driver, it may see a track day further down the line.

You may want to upgrade the sway bars, that said I did not feel any difference when getting those done the same time, hence you may not appreciate the mod, as a piece of mind knowing you have done F&R I would go ahead with new Sway bars

PS; rear sways look like chopstick!

Installing the rear bar also involves dropping the subframe to get it out and the new back in. It will add a bit to the cost the job as it is not a 20min job like the front

I would probably say yes to upgrading the front but not necessarily the rear one. It could make sense to leave the stock sways for the time being and choose to do it later since the front one is a simple thing to change. When you are ready to think about getting the car on a track you might be in a better position to decide on some complementary mods, eg. tires, sub-frame bushings, sway bars, diff, etc.

If you do decide to change the rear bar, then sub-frame bushings are a really important upgrade to help maintain stability and control in corners.

I would install a sway bar(front) until you DRIVE the car with your new shocks/springs. New springs will really cut down on how much your car sways when turning into a turn.
