Anyone with the eibach ARBs installed can tell me how much thicker the eibach ones were?

....26 mm front | 23 mm rear.

There are two settings at the droplink, one being harder than the other. See 2 holes in pic : -

Cheers, guys! 

Phase 2 of my modding exercise has officially commenced.  :pomppomp:


Ordered the H&R ARBs today - got to wait a week.  Apparently it's got to be H&R because of my Xenons.  There's a sensor that attaches to the rear ARB which H&R cater for and Eibach doesn't.

Also ordered a set of 360x30mm two piece discs with 6 pot calipers...got to wait 3-4 weeks for them.

Can't wait  :drool:  :party:

I was advised against the anti-lift kit - apparently a few cars have had problems with them getting loose where the bushes wear over a period of time.  Thoughts/experiences?

Spoke to a guy who does the Nurburgring and he mentioned that a a number of scoobies have shown flexing and started making noises.  It may be something specific to those cars... 

I'm still in two minds...should I get the WALK fitted with the ARBs, or is it money better spent elsewhere?

tony_danza:
No WALK issues on mine, they've been on for 15k+... and battered HARD around the UK and Germany's finest.

I'd pay no attention to hearsay, particularly when it isn't even on the same type of car.
