Aunty Roll Bars

Hows it going

Just wondering what anti roll bars people recommend for the mk1 - is it worth getting a rear one put on? Will the front one clash with my exhaust?

Is it worth having all the braces aswell?

I have Neuspeed ARB's, Koni adjustables and standard springs on my GLS. Fantastic, flat turn in, smooth ride, even over sleeping policemen and my tyres stay stuck to the tarmac over really bumpy twisty stuff. Really sharp, rewarding drive and a major transformation over standard.

Best setup by far for road use IMHO. (But I have no experience of coilies...)

Front brace seems to offer slightly sharper response too.

Combined with the lower front brace well worth doing.

as Laurence suggests the Neuspeed bars worth considering as are the Autotech ones - both USA sourced. They both pick up on the rear suspension where the shock is mounted as opposed to just being tied to the axle as i believe the eibach bars to be.

Weitec do kits too - dont know how they pick up on rear end but based on the coilovers i run on a car again worth considering quality wise.
