Default Bug Eye Improvements?

Looking at improving the chassis and handling capabilities of my Bug eye, not really up to speed with all the options, but i was thinking of starting with a rear 22mm ARB, would this be a good start, what else might you recommend before I go for the ARB?

A trip to Powerstation is in order

They have fitted for me (on my MY02 STI)

• AST Sportline Adjustable Coilovers
• STI Front strut brace
• STI Rear strut brace
• Whiteline Anti lift/Castor kit
• Whiteline Rear drop links
• Whiteline 22mm rear adjustable sway bar
• Whiteline 22mm front anti roll bar

oh and a geometry setup.

Give Dirk a call and he will advise you as to what is best for your needs.

Cool

Just fitted Tein Flex suspension to my STi bugeye as this has adjustable damping I also added the EDFC (Electronic damping Force Control, I think) as I can't be bothered removing the back seat every time I want to alter the damping. I have also fitted front and rear upper strut braces aswell aas a lower H-brace (the strut braces were purchased of E-bay very reasonably) Just waiting to get the alignment setup done then should be great. the result is the car is a lot flatter when cornering, reduced lift during acceleration. All I need to do is play with the damping settings. Enjoy when done m8.
