so the forge strut bars first. that will give you quicker turn in response and makes the car feel like one piece.

the rear ARB is only noticeable when you push the car really hard around a corner (i have a unit installed). the rear steps out a bit and induces slightly more oversteer. the car doesn't lose control so easily. drive carefully until you get used to the feeling or you may risk an accident. but once you have tasted it, you will feel the difference. helps cornering a lot!

Why bother with a front strut brace. It will make it understeer more especially for a FWD car.

Yes you guys are right, may be just a rear ARB! Added to my wish list :) thx a lot!

to be honest, the front adds no value in cornering, except it makes your car stronger and so, less metal fatigue.
however the rear really rocks, as it helps to pull the rear outward a bit while cornering hardly, to compensate the understeer.
