Just a followup: I grabbed the 23mm front bar and installed it and I love it. It's shape and style are identical to the stock 21mm bar, and it bolted up perfectly. The car now behaves exactly as I had hoped. Wallow is gone. Inside rear wheelspin is greatly reduced (it rained today and I tested it) ;) Lane changes are much more precise. Car now seems to be more stable in crosswinds at freeway speeds, but not much experience on this yet. Throttle on oversteer is now more controllable. Keep in mind though, this cheapo junkyard mod is not for everyone as it alters the roll coupling to cause the car to be more prone to understeer. I autocross a FWD car and have lots of practice left foot braking and dealing with understeer, so it's perfect for me. Thanks again for the info, john.
