Before the last rallyx race I upgraded the rear sway bar on my 2001 Forester, and that greatly helped with body roll, but the front is still dipping pretty badly on turns. Could that be helped by upgrading the stock sway bar, or will that make the car understeer worse than it already does?

And what about strut tower braces? I noticed a bunch of people with those on Subarus at the last race.

Thanks...

what do you mean by "dipping"?

body roll is also highly dependant on your shocks / struts & springs.

Sorry, I meant to say "body roll".
