Ruddmeister said:Agreed it's on the Mk2 Golf which more than anything else is lighter, but if this applies to the Mk2 Golf then 'similar' priciples 'should' apply.
Think I will try and see if the Golf R32 22mm front ARB does fit on the LCR (as rumoured) if not then i'll buy a Neuspeed 25mm for the MK1V Golf.
Glad I haven't rushed things and personally I find it interesting to see the difference as I go along.......

Scotty_b said:What about an upper rear strut brace like RobDon has?
Ruddmeister said:Don't think this would help Yumann or improve turn in / flex at the front of the car.
Yumann said:Went for a drive last night to test some more. The car just doesn't like quick left right jinks eg. to avoid potholes etc. Seems unstable.
So a jink to the right takes a few milli seconds for the rear to react by then you have jinked to the left and by then the car is reacting to the previuos right jink.
However on long sweeping bends there is not problem nice and flat and very composed.

Ruddmeister said:Did you read the link on the last page from edc, the guy was advocating doing the front and rear ARB's together (and obviously springs / dampers if poss).
Will let you know how the car feels with a fron ARB unless NeilC beats me to it
Yumann said:What arb you going for then?
Ruddmeister said:Have Grant at Westec lining up the R32 one.
But, will wander across the road later and speak to Neil at TSR, pick his brains on MK1V Golf's (his wife has a 1.8T now at 2.1lites) see what he has to offer etc.......but he's busy at the moment so will give him a while![]()
Yumann said:Thats pretty class working/living across the rd from tsr. Doesnt get much better than that.
Ruddmeister said:.............Going to try a larger front ARB..........
DPJ said:I would suspect that's the answer.
