Hi

What are the best mods to make to improve the syspension on a MY03 UK STi?

I already have prodrive springs.

Should I change the anti roll bars for whiteline?
What about the alloy links and ALK?

Cheers

What are you looking to improve about the handling?

Just want to sharpen it up a little really.

I have been looking at the powerstation kits. Cearly I don;t need the eibach springs but is it worth while replacing the STi roll bars for the whiteline ones?

No track use intended, just spirited road driving.

Cheers

Whiteline rear 22mm adjustable arb will tighten it up nicely along with a good geometry set up.

Wire drop links are fine on the rear, but alloy are more Bling, and cost more.... the oe bolts usually snap when changing the ARB.

22mm adjustable is fine for me, fully stiff gave the car a "drift-spec" set-up, sharper turn-in to corners, flatter through the corners, and oversteer on exit .

Then I fitted the front bar and ALK, this calmed down the oversteer, but increased the overall grip.

Just make sure you bin the OEM drop links. That would be my 1st change, 22mm ARB as mentioned above second, anti-lift kit 3rd and Eibach springs 4th. Total dosh = £450 ish and will make more difference than £450 spent on any other aspect of the car.

Best thing I did was fit a 22mm adjustable whiteline rear arb. The middle setting is great you can really feel the difference. I used alloy droplinks only cos it was a good deal at the time.
Fitting time approx 1hr, you will need to drop the rear silencer off the rubbers to get the arb in but its real easy.
