Cdf arbs
Got both bars and drop links fitted last night and they look amazing and the handling is absolutely awesome. The quality of finish is 2nd to none. I'm thinking of taking the whiteline arbs of my other scoob and getting cdf ones. Thanks cdf racing for another fantastic product. Keep up the good work.

Just a quick note to say thanks for the delivery Chris, I got it early this week as expected and am due to get all the stuff fitted next week.
Quality looks excellent, I look forward to the results.

Just thought I'd post up a little update.
My 24mm rear and 22mm front bars and droplink kit arrived last week for my 2006 WRX Hawkeye.
Everything looks excellent quality, night and day difference to other popular stuff I've bought and fitted over the years and the bars really look like they will hold up to the crap roads and weather we get here in the UK.
For the price I got it all in the group buy I have to say it really was a bargain, thanks Chris!
So decided at 7:45pm that I'd go fit the rear ARB and droplinks, not leaving much time given it gets dark about 9pm here and I was doing it outside but was happy to finish it tomorrow if I couldn't tonight.
First thing I noticed is how puny the standard RARB really is compared to the CDF.
I need not have worried, took me a hour with putting the tools away, dead simple
The only things to mention and the one thing that had me puzzled for a while was that there's more washers than you need on each bolt, I couldn't work out where to put them all when it dawned on me that in fact you don't need them all and the diagram snows you where you do need them so don't worry when you're left with a few spare big washers
I also had to very slightly enlarge the space in the bracket that the bottom of the drop links fit into as they were too tight to get in so to get the bolt hole lined up.
Anyway, out for a quick blast and you notice it immediately, even on the middle setting. Turn in is much more precise and on long fast sweeping bends the car is so much more planted than with the standard RARB but be warned if you don't have good tyres, this will only exaggerate that and could very easily land you in trouble if it's damp. Get some good rubber on and a good geo setup is my advice.
Cant wait to get the front fitted tomorrow, hoping it will be as simple but I suspect not, we will see.
Hope this is useful

Hi mate, was directed to this thread from another (a little late for the discount I see) but could you quote me a price for delivery of the 24 mm adjustable arb and a set of front and rear solid drop links for a MY04 wrx? ( I think that is what i want to be fitting for better handling now I've had a remap??) Not quite in a position to buy just yet but this is definitely my Next mod.
Cheers..

How are the brakes stand easy? My Wrx has been remapped and the extra speed just highlights how poor the standard brakes are. Ill be kitting my car out with arbs, droplinks etc but after the brakes see some changes. .

Hi mate, I felt the standard brakes weren't up to much either and had read loads of stuff on here warning of the same so went with the Godspeed grooved discs and Kevlar pads. All the work is being done at the same time tho and I pick it up later so got to bed the brakes in before I open up the extra bhp. Gonna be a bit frustrating ha. I believe the next thing to get the most out of the map is the Arb etc
