yoo guys....heard dat the rear anti roll bar isnt strong enuff to copewit strenious driving...it thens to fish tail...is this a myth or a fact....
 
and also, would it be any different if a thicker ARB is installed or if using M3 ARB?

Maybe I shud, one of these days... need to find out how my babe compares to her peers.
 
mr. Hartge.............Lu manyak jahatlar.............Just put in your order for them ARs ok?But seriously, the fishtailing has to do with the set-up of the current suspension sytem, ARB adjustment and setting, tyre choice and of course, driver's skill level.
 
hahahahahahha....brother hartge dah kena racun....hehehehhehbro the ARB's are still not fully set up yet ... need to take kevster for a lonng drive and a hoist ...cheers :D
 
Saying this again, thicker ARB will cause the car to lose traction. It will probably induce a slight oversteer into the car. Now, why people want thicker ARB? Well faster cornering speed, yup but its not because of better traction (actually its the opposite), because you are getting better steering. And in the rain, you will probably have to drive slower around the corners kekekeke..

aaaiiikkk....wa pulak jahat??? ane three28 lar, kasin racun... :D yar lar kev, depends on the pilot skills but the thing is wud rearARB upgrade really make a diff ( front yes)?Got any along low interest aaaR????
 
hehehehehhhe....bro... actually you should get the x brace also ...havent had the chance to fit mine yet ... will let ya try ...cheers :D
 
Aris,go call my brader la..then you have a ride in his car lah!! then you'll know what I mean.or perhaps you wanna try out the Racing Dynamics combo??? coilovers on the front...!!! Apex combo for E46 M3 oso I can get wor..!!If you can find the X brace...get it!!

oni when it is set up to be too stiff... However, it all depends on the whole setup, if you are aledi using stiffer springs and shockers, thicker ARB will make it even stiffer and that will lead to poor traction...as for my setup, I'm using Eibach Prokit and Boge absorbers, so it's not stiff to start with, so with the anti roll bars, it reduced body roll... With less roll, it increases cornering speed and braking while taking a sweeper is oso more control. In my case it, increases traction as the set up has not gone Over The Top. However, once it went over the limit, things will turn out differently..

Bro,Put it this way...you'll wonder why you didn't purchase them earlier!No exaggeration, performance anti-roll bars offer exceptional value for money! Although they cost a fair bit, you will not hesitate to part with your moolah once you have them installed!

Correct, and this also depends on your suspension system you're using. If you haven't already lowered your car, I'll advice you to do it one step at a time. Lower it with proper springs and try some stiffer shockers (if you're trying to reduce body roll as an objective)... then the rear arbs. Different strokes for different folks. You might find that lowering alone is more than sufficient, depending on your expectations and preference :)As for the x-brace, you will not feel much difference with it installed (regardless of how 'good' this additional reinforcement everyone says it is) without a proper matching front strut :) The whole idea of this piece is to basically tighten the lower chasis/subframe areas for better car and steering response and you will not realise this, at least until you take your ride out for an aggresive run on corners especially. Throw in the front strut for the car, coupled with the x-brace, and you have created a slightly vertical trapezoid region from the lower mid to upper front. This improves steering response quite a bit and reduces body roll a little (not yaw).Doubts? Install both the pieces, drive like a madman for 2 weeks, then remove either piece. You'll know what I'm talking about ... ;)
 
eldrow..wat bout this set-up?m52b28 baseShox- bilsteins yellowsprings-eibachARB -stock front & rearFront strut bar installedsufficient?
 
aiiya just put bamboo to brace the chassis laaaa...
