As above, doing some suspension upgrades soon
ie arbs, droplinks, ALK etc
what is the prefered of the two,
( fitting , value for money etc )
also considering springs , but not coilovers.
any views , comments.

 

I had Whiteline stuff fitted to my old Bugeye WRX. Its was good quality and I had no issues with it.

I'm fitting Perrin suspension items to my Blobeye STI though. In my opinion Perrin parts are of superior quality but more expensive. You pay for what you get I suppose. In terms of driving feel I can't compare yet because the stuff is in the garage awaiting fitment.

Wolfie.

 

tell you tommorrow but ive gone with whitline 27mm front and rear arb front and rear hd drop links and a antilift kit with whiteline coilovers

 

hi m8 are your coil overs new or s/hand 27mm f 27mm r is a bit severe for a road car on my sti 07 plate i run 24 f 27 rear same on my classic track car ,but i am a very aggressive driver let me know how your car performs geo

 

Never used or sold the Perrin bars myself for one very good reason.

The Whiteline bars are made in one solid piece, ie the flat end where the bolts for the drop links go through is "forged" from the actual bar.
The Perrin bars have a flat piece welded on to the end of the bar, although this looks slightly neater and the overall finish of the Perrin stuff is undeniably better I cannot help thinking this weld could be a possible weakness
...........it is at this exact point that ALL the pressure on the bar will be.

 

perrin products look good to me, finished in red, so you can see what you've spent your hard earned on
i doubt any of us will be able to tell the difference in performance

i bought
whiteline front ARB
rear droplinks
anti lift kit

perrin rear ARB
superpro poly-bush kit

all from NEVERENOUGH AUTO in america,
find them usa ebay

excellent exchange rate now
i saved money (even on 15% discount from demon T), delivered to the door,

 

Admitedly bias to Whiteline as after 5 years of road and serious competition it simply all works.

 

My whiteline rear ARB has gone seriously rusty in the last 3-4 years

 

Good stuff bad paint,I had mine shot blasted,and powder coated,they look great now.
