This only seems to have appeared recently and I fear it has come from on here without research??

I took the car out in the quietness of late last night to test it through a few roundabouts. Conditions were dry. I am truly astonished by the improvement in the handling of my UK turbo that the proper allignment by Roger clark motorsport has made on top of the Eibach springs and Rear ARB.
The car turns into the corners much better with improved feel as well as cornering flat and understeer has been further massively reduced... All this with Eagle F1 front tyres that need replacing ( well worn inner edges).
The speed and smoothness with which you can whip around roundabouts and out again is like adding another load of bhp/torque.
Finnie....I don't know what settings Roger Clark use, i just let them set it up for fast road use. They are very professional. Don't have a front ARB...just the rear along with eibach springs if you can. I presume you have a Classic.

Yeah Classic RB5,
I assume you still have the original anti roll bar.
My shopping list to go with Eibach springs and anti lift kit is
Whiteline rear adjustable anti roll bar with whiteline front and rear drop links then alignment. Might spend the money I save on rear roll bar and fitting on samco hose kit and sti rear lights

finie, I answered your question over on the RB5 forum.
From a drivers perspective, I'd leave the Samco's and STI lights. They'll do nothing for the car (other than looks from the lights) whereas the suspension mods will bring a bigger smile to your face.
Eibachs, Rear ARB, Droplinks and good geo will transform the car

OK, I got them from MRT so I've always called them that!
Like Floyd, havn't driven mine since the original fitting, been getting the old 911 on the road (passed MoT today).
Off into Wales tomorrow to 'test' the car a bit.
Report to follow on my thread.
Names always are tricky to me
Grantham, I mean Graham, no, I mean 911
