Since the restoration project of my GTV6 is about to launch, I think it's also opportunity to enhance the performance of the car. It's no brainer that stock suspension is a bit too soft for a decent sports car. Hence my question to those who have 27 mm torsion bars: did handling got better after installation of these? Are they still soft enough for everyday streetuse?
Thanks,
Pete

I run 28.7mm, I find them perfect for the street with light track application

I think 27mm would be good also.

I got 27mm bars in my Giulie, improved the handling a lot and it's still not so stiff that it breaks your back after 40 mins of city driving, I think it's a great upgrade, better still are coilovers, less weight

Great! Thanks guys. Do you think that it's also necessity to change the anti roll bar to accompany the 27.3 mm t-bars? By the way how much the t-bars weigh?

The bars are pretty heavy, heavier than the stock ones for sure, i'd say probably about 40 or 50kg both, that's just a guess, I currently have the stock anti roll bars, handling is pretty nice, much better than stock, the car has much more grip and doesn't roll that much..

40 or 50Kg??

My 30mm bars weigh ~10Kg for both.
