[Alex Mckenzie]

Hi I’m back to looking for a rear swaybar for my bora 4motion. I’ve been trying to find a pre-loved 19mm from a r32, no success.
I only what the rear one, whiteline and
Many sites say the whiteline BWR22XZ will fit bora 4motion, but when I emailed whiteline they say no
Has anyone used this product?

Haven't used that particular bar. But the rest of their stuff is poor quality. I'd stick to quality parts like h&r

Whiteline discontinued the sway for the 4mo, so they told me.

Used R32 or if it fits maybe an Audi S3 sway? May work if u don't want to buy new

The Bora and R32 got the same size sway bars in Aus . Overseas models got euro spec sway bars that are slightly thicker

Really thanks
I thought AU r32 had 19mm bora 16mm

Thanks save me buying the same thing I already have.

Didn't know that either Seb... Guess my R32 sway's are no good to me either then

If you're doing it on the cheap then measure your existing bar and go to the wreckers to find something with similar dimensions but thicker.

Make sure you get all the brackets for the bar as you might have to use them as well.

If you need to use the brackets it helps if you're handy with a welder or have a mate who is.

In the past I've fitted front bars off Mazda's and Mitsubishi's to the rear of my MK1 Golf's - saved me a lot of money.

Didn’t think of that approach, just been looking at Audi and vw swaybars

Cheers worth a look

Another option is to bolt another 4Mo bar onto your existing bar. You need special brackets but they shouldn't be hard to source.

Looks a bit dumb though.

Twin sway bars ?
Wouldn’t the geometry be all out of whack ?

I’ll look into it cheers

Maybe I should wring out some on my tight fisted Scottish blood, and just do it the right way. Nah that won’t happen.

Like the ideas though

Doesn't affect the geometry. You're just bolting another one to the original.

Nothing wrong to having a drop of Scottish blood.

It piggy-backs with 4 brackets. Selby suspension did the same with the front bar on the Mk1 Capri.
It hung down too low, hit the body if not perfectly aligned and looked very dodgy but if there's no other choice...
