hi guys , we’ll i’m near the end now if my massive twin scroll turbo project and i’m now looking into wanting to change out my anti toll bar bushed front and rear .

looking for what’s the best option to upgrade above normal road use ? i’ve seen there’s many types and colours with different hardnesses ,..just after any realworld advice if anyone has any experience

my cars a 87 220 model turbo with yellow adjustable konis ( mo30?) i assume ( not measured ) that it has normal size bars front and rear as it was a straight lady owner car befor me i started heavily moding the engine (poor thing!)

have wondered if there is anywhere to get a stiffer/thicker ARB s if any of you faster road/track drivers recomend them or not? or are stiffer rubber polys / power flex and maybe adjustable links the way to go?

for the record i would like it to corner a bit less rolly,…although i did find it hasn’t a problem with good grip since i got promax to do a full alighnment it is just a bit too leany for my liking when the mood takes me.

i am open to any suggestions you guys have on the matter

thanks
Daniel
 
Get the Floflex front ARB bushes as they’re far more resistant to oil/power steering fluid/coolant than the rubber ones. Leave the front ARB stock unless you love understeer.


For the rear, grab an adjustable M030 rear bar from Porsche (dirt cheap, under £130), poly bush it and add some adjustable drop links from partworks.de or make your own with bits from McGill Motorsport.

Make sure you measure your front ARB though as there are a couple of different sizes.

Just checked in PET and couldn't see the adjustable rear bar under 944, then selected 968 and there it was [;)]

944 333 701 01 - adjustable rear bar (19mm)
964 333 792 00 - M030 bushes (19mm)
