i think if depends on what make of ABRs you go for. H&R, Eibach and neuspeed ones are the main ones i think. i've got a TDi FR and went for eibach one, but my front ARB is 26mm and 23mm rear. not sure how much different cupra ones will be.

Did the ARB make much difference to yours Chan? Was considering one myself..

the car corners a bit flatter than on standard ABRs. It also understeers less in the wet, which is a huge benefit.

Street, Chan does your Eibach ARBs squeak? I've red that H&R ARBs have teflon bushes so they are quieter but I'm not sure that they are worth the extra price.

Here is more abut it:

I have front and rear stiffer H&R's and they dont squeak at all.

I have front and rear Neuspeed ARBs. The front one was fitted first and there was abit of a squeak but now that I have fitted the the rear the squeak is gone. Maybe some oil would do the trick or new bushes?

That's because of their teflon bushes. Eibach ARBs have polyurethane ones and may squeak and require oiling. I would like to know does it happen often (or at all).

I've got an Eibach one on the front and a Neuspeed one on the rear.. Neither have squeaked for me at all! However, the guy I work with fitted Eibach ARBs to his Focus and the garage that fitted them didn't grease the front bushes so it squeaked like anything. They ended up taking it back and greasing them properly and now they don't squeak at all!

 

[Chan_P1_TDi_FR]

yeah, my eibach ARBs don't squeak at all.

 

[noktoto]

Thanks for info! I'll go for Eibach kit then, can get it much cheaper then H&R one.

They're well worth it! Make such a difference when giving it some round corners! (Not that I condone that sort of driving! )

 

[Chan_P1_TDi_FR]

biggest difference is wet weather handling. It grips so much more viciously before starting to understeer. Even then you can still feel the tyres trying to bite.

Have you ever greased it?

Have you ever greased it?

Not yet, would this require loosening off the bolts and putting grease on the inside edges of the bush i take it? What type / grade of grease? Im suprised a little sachet or tub doesnt come with the kit...
