Which brand strut brace/bar/questions?

[lefty]

ok i have GAB Struts & Springs (coilovers) in my car which i love

anyways, the car still tends to lean a little bit on twisties, so i was thinking what is there that i should do to stop that?

- Strut Bar
- Rear Strut Brace
- Anti Lift Kit??
- Anything else?

Also what brands are around? I know whiteline has some stuff, maybe a cusco strut bar (id prefer a gab one but!!!!!). Also how much would i be roughly looking at +install. What are the benefits and disadvantages? Is the anti lift necessary?

Feels much better around the twisties :wink:

strut brace

Strut brace is to keep the towers from leaning under load
uprated sway bar will help eliminate body roll
anti lift kits are too decrease understeer
You can also try find an underbody brace

I have a underbody brace which i will sell

First of all make sure all bushes are in good condition no freeplay in any ball joints or tie rod's and wheel alignment is with in spec

oo wheel alignment first ey :|

 

[Entaran]

No point getting an alignment first. You'll need to redo it after the swaybars are installed and quite possibly after a rear strut brace is too.. depending on the condition of your shell.

I suggest whiteline for Aussie manufactured with excellent quality.

i dont think ill bother with a rear strut bar, i want boot space?

is there front and rear swaybars ey?

 

[GSRSOL]

only a rear, you can get a 18 or 20mm one..... i think

you should come and have a drive of my car chris, i have the whiteline the works pack, that will give u a good idea of what the difference is

suspension

This is the set up I am using atm
All bushes front and rear except for rear upper trailing arms (which are a hyme joint from factory) replaced with superpro polyurethane incl diff and pinion mounts
Tein aus spec adj dampeners
lower control arm brace
1.00mm total toe out on front
0.0mm total toe on rear
1.25 deg negative camber f&r

Have not needed a rear sway bar yet due to having dampeners valved correctly

[bazeng]

- Strut Bar / Brace
front - whiteline $150 - $200 (depending where u get it from)

- Rear Strut Brace
same as above

- Anti Lift Kit??
whiteline should do them
nolathane might also

- Anything else?
rear sway bar
front sway bar
all bushes
caster bushes
camber bushes for the rear

lots of options buddy
so many choices..

i had mine sorted with all whiteline strut braces / sway bars, a mix of mackay/whiteline/nolathane/noltec bushes (different guys make different things) and also camber bolts from whiteline
