sorry, are you talking about the lower control arm or the sway/anti-sway bar?

i'd have to check out one of nubi's here tonight or tomorrow to be possative but for added stiffness you would need a bigger sway bar.

(or) i'm not sure if it work cause i haven't tried this but depending on how the sway bar mounts you could lengthen or shorten the end links and that might work.

(or) the other option is a bit technical, some of the race teams here will cryo freeze a sway bar for stiffness of torch a sway bar for softness.

the control arms have no affect on stiffness.

the control arms affect the handling which im NEARLY cant have at all when im driving my car, and the second thing which car can i get that sway bar from to fit in my nubira??? as i think we dont have the cryo freeze in Egypt and its hard to do that here anyways, or we do have this but i just dunno?? can u tell me MM???

sorry but the control arms have little if any affect on stiffness of the suspension. the only things that will change the stiffness is the strut brace, shocks/struts, springs, and swaybar. the reason you didn't feel a difference when you swapped the arms before is cause your barking up the wrong tree.

the only thing you can do is change ur bushings for polyurethane, but other than that gse is right only those components make a suspension stiffer.

YA, thx people i think i will have to change the springs soon and i also like the idea of the strut bar so i will do a custom one cuz i dont think that i will find someone for the Nubira here

not really shark racing makes some, or u can use the ones of the mitsu. mirage u just have to modify the holes.

another thing to try is using one of the sunbird, the j150 and it share the same chassis the jb5

Adel Wagdy in herafeen got one that can be modded for the nubira... just needs 2 extra holes in the brace to fit the bolts.
