Question

Mundane I know, but my anti-roll bar is dying. I would replace it with the obvious choice, like for like, but I'm not sure if the lowered and almost race-like suspension of the car is responsible for it's impending death? Geometry seams ok - no adverse wear on the tyres, & the cars done 45 thou miles, (mostly in Japan so I dont know if the this is the original fitment!) Would like for like be best, or is something like an STi version better?

I got the uprated one from MRT. Never had a problem with it, and it helps to cut down the body roll. i would replace the rear for one of their stiffer, adjustable arb's at the same time. You can get them from Soobymania (amongst others) in the UK. http://www.scoobymania.co.uk

When you say your ARB is dying do you mean the bushes are shagged?If so a set of Powerflex bushes may be the answer.I fitted them on my 95 WRX,about £25 if I remember.Hope this helps. Michael

Cheers Michael. I dont think it's just the brushes, although I will replace these as well. No, I was told by the garage at the last service that the ARB was warn, and I think I'm begining to notice the effect through the steering now.
