Default iPd front swaybar with D24T?

Does anyone know if the iPd 25mm front sway bar fits on D24T cars or not?

I do not know if it is a 25mm bar, but it is a D24, at the front, and marked as iPd ... let us know!

That's an iPd bar but it's on a 240- so it's totally different.

But I can now confirm the 7xx iPd bars work with the D24T- I got a good deal on a used set on Turbobricks, and installed them yesterday. They're definitely a worthwhile modification, the handling difference is incredible. I never bought a pair before because iPd charges so much, but right now the market seems saturated with used pairs on the forums and they're pretty cheap.

I can confirm that the 25mm IPD swaybar clears the oil pan, but it's close. I should say I also have a set of IPD's lowering springs installed, which I believe would change the alignment of the swaybar slightly. If I am thinking about this right, it would only make it a tighter fit. So whatever spring setup your using, you should be fine.

Go D24/T'ers! and enjoy the handling of IPD Swaybars!

On mine the iPd 25mm bar actually has a bit more clearance between the bar and the pan than with the stock bar, as the iPd bar has a deeper dip in it. My car is lowered a lot, but I can't determine how since the springs have the same diameter and number of coils as my 745 wagon which sits several inches higher. Perhaps it's "self lowered" over time via spring sag...

very interesting read... I might have to get me a set...

all ive got as far as suspension is a set of cut springs... almost dragging the frame rails =(

very bouncy... but takes corners without risk of flipping over lol

how much did you get your bar for?

I paid $190 delivered for front and rear bars with brackets and bushings. I've seen them go as low as $160 shipped on Tbricks...
