which rear arb aftermarket exhaust

[paul-murphys]

i have done a search an read a lot of people are using the neuspeed rear arb an r32 front, i have read lots of people use the neuspeed rear arb because it clears the backbox. i have a aftermarket backbox so was wondering what else is available.

looked at these

only 25mm i no but read a few people are also using 25mm neuspeed rear arb. has anyone brought this an if so what you think. for the money i would buy the neuspeed rear arb could buy front an back kw ones. ordered my uper strut today so will fit that as soon as comes in.

thanks for any inputs

thankyou. all need to do now is decide which rear arb. cant justify spending 270 on piece of metal, do we get discount being on scn? anyone got a cheaper option for rear arb? non standard backbox.

 

[paul-murphys]

just ordered front r32 arb. went for the 21mm version, also picked up s3 strut brace so need to no what to go for for the rear? help

 

[james walker]

go for the neuspeed rear arb mate, quality and fits well with the oem rearbox.

28mm version set on full strength.

Hi,

How much did the R32 ARB setup cost you? Did you go to VW dealer?

Thanks

but its 260 which i thinks a lot, do we get any discount being on scn? is it easy to fit? not to easy to take off are they? had bits stole off car before an if so easy to take off will have to secure it,

You would have to be an extremely intent thief to even contemplate removing a rear ARB off a LCR

 

[paul-murphys]

yeah but i live in cov an full of pikeys. they undone all the screws an stole side skirts before so want to make sure its not just unbolt t nuts an arb comes off

 

[Ronin225]

You would have to be as thin as PTFE tape to try and slide underneath the back and unbolt and unclip from rear beam.
If you look in the FAQ section ruddmeister did a review on suspension and it shows a pic of rear ARB with car on ramps.
Then tell me if you think they would try and nick it

 

[paul-murphys]

ok i see your point lol. just trying to see if can get a bit cheaper then 260

try the whiteline, its 22mm but is adjustable, i have one on mine and it really is very good, set on full stiffness

But he will then have a thicker front bar causing more understeer
I thought they should be fatter at the back or at least equal??

 

[paul-murphys]

i have ordered r32 front 21mm version so back would be a little bigger. would that be ok or not?

 

[Ronin225]

Didnt read it properly as i thought you went 23mm.
You could do 22 on hardest setting as you dont need a big fat 28mm bar with only 21mm up front.
A 25mm would be better as more adjustment should you want stiffer

 

[paul-murphys]

ok going to have to have look around an get myself a rear 25mm or 28mm neuspeed didn't want to spend that much but looks like thats my only option.

I've got a 25mm neuspeed on the rear (stiffest setting) and just the standard arb on the front on my lcr and it is a nice handling setup
