Rear Sway Bar: GT350 vs GT350R

[GuardEcoBeast]

My question is how much stiffer is the R bar over the standard bar and how does the R bar fit if it is shorter than all the other bars?

Rear part numbers. FR3Z-5A772-E and F2GZ-5493-C.

It has a shorter arm after the bend. That's where a slight change in stiffness comes from over the GT350 bar. Just like going to the inner holes on an adjustable bar.

My car is non-pp with the 21.7mm bar, going to the 24mm R bar it is noticeably stiffer than the OEM when compared to the other car, but not in a bad way.

As long as you don't get the R bar made for MagneRide it is a direct replacement part.

why not get the r bar? too much?

how would it make the car feel to just do the front 350 bar on an 18GTPP? with stock pp bar. more front end grip? would it make it unbalanced?

Improved response to direction changes, less roll, but also less mid-corner front-end grip.

sounds like it may be better to just run both front and rear?

It's driver preference to have centered, understeer or oversteer. I prefer to have a little oversteer which is what the heavier rear bar does. Aftermarket bars that are higher than 24mm and not adjustable may have been to much oversteer for me. I also added the Steeda 2 point trac brace to reduce tramlining in the front.

isnt the rear pp and 350 bar same dimensions?

Yes.
