Default Anti roll bars.

Just thought id let people know who are thinking of replacing the above. I replaced the front and rear bars using whiteline which i bought from powerstation. Im finding the car seems to handle much better and highly reccomend the change. Also the service from powerstation was 2nd to none.
A good investment in my eyes.

regards Dan.

i had the rear one replaced with a whiteline 22mm adjustable, with rear droplinks and anti lift kit and the car is a completely different car, i was told that the front one being replaced would only bring back the understeer tendencies of the car so left it like it is.

Ditto. And don't forget the 4 wheel alignment, of course.

Have you noticed any difference in the ride quality, got the same set up in mine and seems to be a bit more 'crashy' over potholes and the likes.

it is very stiff and crashy over potholes and stuff, but get it on a good road, and not a lot will stay with it on the twisties, handles unbelievably now

Agree with the handling, glad this has affected the 'feel' over potholes, was bricking myself incase something was working its way loose
