Suspension upgraded!

I got my suspension upgraded to, well yesterday actually.

Installed some Tokico HPs with some Tein H Techs.
So far so good. I had to change something in it though because it was too short and the front say bars were hittin' something.
Sorry if I sound lame describing this but that's because i am!
LOL

I didn't actually do the install. I went to my mechanic (the best in T&T as far as i'm concerned!) and it was done there.

While i was doin' some research on this setup, a few ppl told me that i should get some sway bars for it.

Now when i talked to my mechanic, he said i didn't need any because the car already had sway bars.

And i just read a post on suspension and a guy said that he has sway bars on his protege and wanted to know if he should upgrade to an AWR 20mm (i think)

If i already have sway bars on my car, would i need to upgrade that too?

Congrats on the upgrade, I hope you're enjoying the improved handling

Take pics of the underbody man, you're the only person on this forum with your model of Protege so most of us (most .. not all) don't even have a clue what your car has or doesn't have on it.

Thanks KrayzieFox! And yeah I am enjoyin' the improved handling. My stock shocks were terrible! I haven't pushed it to the limit yet to actually see what it can do because I just got em on and plus i have 1 other thing to do then get it aligned, then i'll really test it out.

I'll try to get on a ramp to take some pics, maybe when i'm gettin' it aligned i can do that because i don't really have access to a ramp and it'll be kinda difficult to take pics without it being on a ramp.

I myself aren't sure what i have on it. The only things i know i have is what i installed on the car, like the new suspension.
