I you have a P71 with the inline oil-to-water cooler, the addco kit will be difficult to fit because it doesn't have the proper curved section to miss the oil cooler. Just use the P71 sway bar with the proper Energy Suspension bushings.
Be sure to measure your sway bar, 'cause 1.5 mm will make a difference in the handling with the bushings. I thought I had a 29.5mm sway bar, ordered the bushings for that, and found out I had a 28mm sway bar. It felt like I had no sway bar on the car. When I went for a drive, it felt "loose". After re-ordering (after I measured it) the CORRECT bushings, it made a world of difference.
