Setting swaybar pre-load, whats best for the mk3?

[Blackmk3]

Hello all, got another question to throw out there

Ive got Whiteline adjustable sway-bars in my supra and after awhile of being unhappy with the supplied end-links and the Stock plastic rear ones, ive got myself adjustable ones

Now after reading up i see, you are suppost to drop the car to ride height then set the endlinks so theres no load on the swaybars (makes sence)
But after searching around the internet ive found that a few people (mainly BMW drivers) actually add pre-load to there cars and claim to get better steer in?
I understand there suspension is entirely different to ours but i just got me thinking if others out there that have experimented with this before on mk3s and what results they found?

The car has Bilstein shocks and Tein springs with a full poly bushings kit, and gets track raced and drifted

Thanks

loading a sway bar will make the sway bar turn up word more thus doing nothing since you are moven the same amonte of spring in the same place

now if you were to drill the sway bar and move it's pivit location then the action will change


what I figure you saying here is suspension per-load this is mostly found on leaf springs and some lower control arms ect the reson fro it so you don't tear out bushings


so adjust them them to the plastic ones hight and call it day

- Preload is only done on circle track cars.
- There's a reason the rear endlinks are plastic. If you haven't reinforced the rear tabs, you're in for some fun...
- The whiteline front endlinks are stonger than damn near anything you can put on the car.

Not sure how you can be "unhappy" with the endlinks to be honest...

The whiteline bars come with a few adjustment holes I think. During my last drift event this season I had adjusted my stock sway bars. I just put in the driftmotion sway bar end links to make the sway bar sit flat. It wasn't sitting flat because I had lowered my car. When I got to try it on the track my car felt much more stable in drift. I liked it because it felt like it didn't want to spin out as much as it did before.

you can't even preload the stock sway bar as far as I know

only one's I know you can per load are the 3 peace bars
