Hey Redbrick,
Thanks for the link. I'll look at it as soon as I'm done with this.

It seems there was a little misunderstanding. My Subaru SVX (not WRX) is faster than the V40 in curves because it's CG is already lower. I was suggesting that lowering the V40 might make it better. I don't want to lower the SVX. (For information about the SVX - www.subaru-svx.net )I can also understand you not wanting to lower the V40. It's ground clearance is already pretty scant.

Also, after a little research, I'd like to say that you're probably right about the rear sway bar. I don't see many offerings for tightening up the front, and just doing the rear might have a bigger effect than I thought without the nasty 'swapping-ends' syndrome.

Best of luck to ya. Let us know the results of your quest.
