Some Subaru BRZ owners report experiencing poor handling that necessitates the replacement of front and back sway bars. Signs of bad sway bar links, such as noise or diminished handling, may indicate the need for replacement. Upgrading the front sway bar can help reduce front body roll and camber loss, improving turn-in while maintaining rear stability during cornering. Additionally, installing stiffer sway bars, like a 19mm front and a 16mm rear, can significantly enhance suspension stiffness and handling characteristics. However, some owners find that aftermarket sway bars can lead to undesirable handling traits, prompting them to revert to OEM components or adjust stiffness settings to achieve a better balance between comfort and performance. Addressing these issues can enhance the Subaru BRZ's handling and overall driving experience.
