There's no rear swaybar. I think what happens with the Elise is the
inside rear shock extends fully and picks up the wheel. A stiffer
front swaybar would help by reducing the lean angle. Stiffer front
springs would help even more by reducing nose-dive due to braking as
well as reducing lean. The springs aren't legally changeable in stock
class. Things to try:
a stiffer front bar
more compression damping on the front shocks
use a rear shock with 1" longer extended length
