Nuespeed ARB

Hello

Could you give me a price for the Nuespeed 28mm ARB's supply only, looked on the website under suspension and couldn't see anything?

This is for a 2003 Seat Leon Cupra R

Thanks

While you're looking for him, could you also look at the price of the 25mm neuspeed rear ARB for me. Also for an '03 LCR...

Don't appologise AFAIK that is the difference, extra thick by 3mm helps rigidity and reduces roll further, but at the expense of additional weight and cost.

And the greater the difference in stiffness between rear and front (i.e. rear stiffer) the greater the tendancy for understeer...

It may be worth remembering that the front anti-roll bar is only 17/18mm I think so going to a 28mm might make it a bit prone to oversteer. I know that you need a TT front arb if you are planning to upgrade the front not a MK4 or Leon arb!!

I know someone on here has front and back and was also going for the H&R cup kit, think his username was something like jheartidge?? (not sure if thats the correct spelling)

The 25mm ARB for the LCR is probably the better option! 28mm probably is too rigid unless you do something to the front to compensate!

I used to just recommend 25mm rear ARB's (£185+vat) if you werent going for the front.. however most golf 4 guys just throw on the 28mm rears (£195+vat) and have no problems and are really happy with them...

RE: ARB for 2000X seat ibiza cupra
Forgive me but i think these use Mk2 Golf/Mk3 Golf rear ARBs? can anyone clarify this?

I hear you, was thinking of top strut brace (we already have lower) to stiffen the front, 28mm rear ARB and of course coilovers.

Be interesting to see the result.

If I'm not happy then i'll do the front ARB too

Yeah, I tried to make it aa general comment, not aimed at you - because I know you said you're going to do other suspension stuff...

@Ade - did someone mention a GB ? I know Z tried for one before...
