Been speaking to the guys at Powerstation about improving the handling on my MY03 WRX.

I'd appreciate any comments on the following enhancments they've suggested:
Eibachs (of course!!!)
Anti Lift Kit with Aluminium solid links
Rear anti Roll Bar
4 wheel alignment

Cheers

I'm looking at similar mods on my MY03 WRX also. What sort of all in price are they asking ?

Many thanks

Ian,

Source the ARB, droplinks, ALK and fit them yourself. All you need is some wheel ramps, blocks and a decent socket wrench set.

I bought a Whiteline adjustable ARB from Jap Innovations. Cost me £100 IIRC. They do the Whiteline ARB's and ALK too, so try and get a price for all everything; I'm sure they'll do you a good deal.

The ARB and droplinks will take about an hour to fit and are a piece of pi$$. I've no mechanical skills and I managed them on my car without any problems. Have a nosey around my website for details and pics.

The ALK can be a bit tight to remove the bolts, but nothing a long, sturdy wrench some WD40 and a little brute force won't sort.

Then get PS to fit the Eibachs and do the alignment/geometry for you.

Ozzy,

Your clicky to your website doesn't seem to be working - unless it's just my PC?
