yeah im on Guam, but i remember my brother in laws neightbor had a 92 and it had a sway bar too.

hmmm, cant really figure a reason as to why you wouldnt have any mounting point for a sway bar...maybe i'll research it and try to find out.

Well, Damien, you drive your car, so I'm guessing that for regular old street driving it's ok with no sway?


yeah i agree on that one. my first b13 had no frt speakers from the factory! the plastic in the door wasn't even cut open for the speakers, and now speakers.

i still think it could have possibly been a factory issue. I see the end links in the pictures, any signs of them ever being bolted up?

All SE-R's came with a front and rear sway bar. My FSM says so.
That being said, it is after all a 18 year old car. I'm sure at *some* point in time someone had the car up on a lift and did some sort of work on it...
Maybe they wanted more under steer and deleted the whole bar set up. The ultimate anti-drifting set up.

Sounds possible. But why will there be no evidence at all Would a rear strut bar help, since there is no sway bar? I am trying to AutoX the car.

Having no rear sway bar is preventing me from doing AutoX

yes they come with a rear sway bar, wait, 3 pages.. I imagine someone has told you this already.. but it's a skinny ass sway bar, but a sway bar none-the-less.

Strut bars and sway bars have two completly different jobs. You want a sway bar back there to help bring the rear of the car around.

Yup. Even the slightest 1mm to 2mm change in a sway bar thickness can make a huge differece in how the car drives.
