Has anyone got one of these fitted?
I have a 93 corsa 2.0 16v on 195/50/15s, have konis, eibach springs, polybushed, combo anti roll bar on front and lsd. Am fairly happy with the handling, but the rear is a bit loose. I seen the article on the whiteline website, and read a few things on here of people getting them, but no real feedback.
Has anyone got one of these fitted?
Whats the verdict?
How much did it cost and where did you get it?
Thanks

"Have u got any info on the whiteline ARB that u fitted?"
um not really it only comes with 1 piece of paper, but it does make a real difference and i reccomend it. You can only buy them from demon tweeks.. and there £90 odd each.
"anything really, from what thickness on front and rear i should get. "
well i got the thicker rear bar, 24mm and its great. i also plan to get the thicker 27mm front bar aswell when i have the cash spare..
"and any tips on fitting em, was it hard? "
Really easy to fit, i managed it with a mate with the car only reversed onto 2" high blocks, so with a ramp/ more space its a very easy job, was kinda tight for room the way i did it lol.
"have u found any prob's with urs?"
no nothing, but i think there may be a squeak coming from one of the bushs, imighta done one up a bit tight ill take a look sometime...
cheers

fitted it last night, took about 10 mins. had a mate with me and the car on a 2 post lift
so far impressions are good, car is a lot more stable, the rear wobble is gone. my car didnt have a standard rear sway bar in the axle, so the whiteline makes a big difference.
will do a bit more "enthusiastic" driving over the christmas

there spot on, you cant go wrong wioth it IMO, stabilises the car a lot, and deffo makes the car seem so much more grippy on corners, well worth the reasonable price...
Anyone got the thicker front one
