Lotus Sport Swaybars Yellow Vs. Black

[glacialmoraine]

So, I did what I normally do and bought something without researching it.

I bought a yellow Lotus Sport swaybar assuming yellow meant racecar, like with hondas and red. Apparently it is actually a bit softer than the black one. I can't find complete details on what the difference is between track pack, lotus sport black and lotus sport yellow. Anyone have these numbers handy? I/E how many x more stronger than stock are the limits, what bushings are used/needed, etc. etc.

thanks!

OK, black lotus sport swaybar is PN a111c0134s apparently yellow is a different part number.

On a couple of websites it said this swaybar is only up to 2006.

What is the difference between 06 and 07 swaybars? Can I put an 06 bar on my 07, or have I bought a part I have to sell.

Thanks for any help.

I put the yellow one on, and HRM told me it has bushings that don't need lubrication, unlike the black one.

isn't the Yellow Sway Bar can be adjust (extra holes) while the Black one can't ?

When I was looking to order the Black sway bar, Lotus Sport told me to wait a few weeks and get the Yellow sway bar because it's "better." The middle hole on the Yellow bar is supposed to be the same as the non-adjustable sway bar. It uses no rubber bushings. Therefore, it's supposed to be more responsive. I believe Exige S (maybe only the 240s) come with the Yellow sway bar. I use the middle hole w/ my Lotus Sport Ohlins. I know a guy who has the Bilstein Track package coilovers and he likes it at full soft. Full soft was way too oversteery w/ the Ohlins.
