Hey all, I would like my car more neutral, however i do not understand well how I would go about this.

I want to drift less, so;

Do I need a thicker swaybar in the back?

Or, a thicker swaybar in the front?

Right now my setup is;
Rear
Boge turbogas struts
17mm swaybar(stock)
Rear trailing arm bushings SHOT!
Welded rear strutbar(nice, thanks Ken)

Front
Bilstein heavy duty
Strutbar(the kind that has hinges )
Older bushings although not visably shot
23mmin stock swaybar

THanks, makes sense, after driving my car now oversteer has been reduced by the stiff front end with the new bilstein heavy dutys and the soft rear end.

going from 185 tires of 5.5 inch rims to 195 tires on 6inch rims made the car substantially more neutral.
