Adrian, The 944 had several different torsion bars available. I just got a pair of 944S bars, not sure what year. They are 26mm and should be much more stout than the stock bars, I think they were 20 or 22mm. I hope to install them in the next week. I found a web site that showed actual spring rates at the wheel for 944 torsion bars but I guess it is on my home computer, I'll look tonight and see if I can post it. As for type 3 torision bars I think the square back bars are the most desireable as they are a couple of mm larger dia. Type 3 bars are not available in my area.
