I went for the FK one, can drop 100mm it says but I'm only down about 55-60.

No rubbing at all now.

I can't get any pics at moment mate, not got a ramp or anything.

As for body roll....I not had a chance to try it really, its been raining most of the time

 

[nick_c_1986]

whats the verdict dude ??

got my arb in the boot to get fitted!!

along with spax rear dampers and soon to purchase a rear ARB

 

[nick_c_1986]

lil update too but no photos rear wiper gone and nice glass rear blank fitted

just need to decide what to do with washer jet, currently discconected from the pipework in the engine bay.

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

To be honest I prefered it with the standard bar but I think it may be because I don't have a rear bar so the fron'ts a bit stiff.

I used the spare washer pipe for intercooler water spray

Interesting, so you piped it into the front bumper to spray your intercooler??

guessing its just to clean as spraying with washer fluid wont do much??

Have got my spax coilovers, just waiting to get the whiteline rear arb then fitting will commence!!

Theory is the water absorbs the heat out from the cooler although I have no idea if it actually works

interesting idea! lol you'd need alot of water to cool another to make an effect i'd think.

I guess it must work to an extent as some Evos and Imprezza's have them as standard

defiantly doesn't do any harm
