A solid bar is only about 5% stiffer than a hollow bar of the same diameter... a properly sized hollow bar can be as stiff as a solid bar and alot lighter. Most aftermarket bars are not hollow though, I only know of the arc pipe stablizers from Japan, and those cost $$$
We are developing lower cost solid endlinks for the Z32, they should work with adjustable (spade-end type) sway bars for the 240SX...

That may be true when the bars are in bending (axial). But for torsional loads a solid bar is better.
