      The GT-R rear bar is a little bit smaller. 19.1 mm vs. 20 mm for the GT-X. Whiteline has a 22 mm adjustable rear bar, and they used to have a 22 mm non-adjustable rear bar that was cheaper. That one seems to have disappeared though.
      Question:

      If the GTR rear sway is smaller than the GTX/Pro rear sway, why does everyone say it’s stiffer? I would normally think one was hollow vs. solid, but in this case they are both solid or at least the ones i have. Are they different compounds, or hardened differently, or is this just a myth that the GTR bar is stiffer.

        Possibly a myth. The FSM says the GT-R bar was optimised, not stiffened.

        That's just conjecture though.
