another front ARB question????

cowper3010 · 04-05-2008, 13:17

After owning my oct vrs for 3 months it was time to change my front ARB and bushes, ive been looking through various threads on do's and donts and couldnt really work out what was best to do.

should i just go for standard parts or should i go down the route of tt or r32?

also some times it feels like the annoying squeak could be coming from the back is this possible?

Same here so I just had the standard bar and bushes fitted

It's spot on now

I just fitted the poly bushes, which have made the car feel a little tighter on there own.

HTH

Simple to fit yourself as well

The only reason for fitting a stiffer front ARB to a vRS is if the ARB mounting bush rattle has got to the point of taking the coating off, so the bar needs replacing anyway.

It's not like the vRS doesn't understeer as it is!
