Just because he can.

 

Yup, but then again mine are Swift Springs for coil overs if that matters.

Then again after a second look mine are more even wound coils and not as compressed at ends when my car is on a lift. Duh :mad2:

I jacked it up at Lunch to look.

 

If he has camber plates on the front, the 25mm bar may be too much. I know it would be for my cars setup. Different stokes as they say. I can't say mine is bigger than yours. :wink:

Justa my .02.....

 

Why your decision to go from a 25mm hollow bar to a 19mm solid bar?

 

There's not a lot of difference between a 25mm hollow and a 19mm solid. Not questioning the decision just wanting to know why.

 

A pic of my H-sport 25mm bar. As for me, I love the beefy look and performance of the bigger, hollow bar. YMMV.

 

Interesting springs. Who makes those & what are those plastic pieces on the top few coils? Bump-stops of some sort?

 

They look like H-sports, Brillstein's or maybe MN's and the covering helps keeps the quite when they rust or rub together.

 

Would those be a progressive a spring being wound like they are?

 

I cannot really tell from how the coil is wound, maybe someone else can.
I have Swifts and they are wound the same way but are linear.

 

A progressive spring can usually be recognized by the space between every winding or spring coil of the spring being different. It will go to small on one end to large on the other.

Based on how the coil is wound, those appear to be progressive rate springs.

Dave O. - Yours have the same winding and yet are linear? Interesting.

 

NM Alpha RS

Yep...what Dave said.

Correct!

 

How do you like the progressive springs? Wondering how the soft to harder rate transition is.

 

Point of Order - ***The OP is trying to sell his H-Sport 25mm Rear Sway Bar or trade for an adjustable 19mm.***

There, now I can reply with less hijacking guilt...

I've had them on for less than a month, but so far the Alphas seem to ride wonderfully and the stance is now perfect for my taste and use. Of course, I simultaneously ditched the OEM run-craps for some nice, one-size-up Michelin PS A/S3s and I'm sure that has a ton to do with the improved ride. :ihih:

 

Oh yeah,

Someone please buy or trade a 19mm bar for his 25mm H-Sport comp bar from the OP since it is a great mod for any MINI.

 

Major thread drift. :smilewinkgrin:

Thanks for your reply Gil-galad.

Buy the OP's sway bar please!
