I\'m looking at doing some sprinting next year as I\'ve ran out of money for racing and having just purchased a house that\'s unlikely to change ;)

But thinking of getting some adjustable ARB\'s just as a quick and easy way to tun the suspension to a circuit then still be able to drive home.

So I\'ve seen mention of the Racing Beat ARB\'s but also read about the front not being too great and crack in places / bend.

What\'s the prices on the MazdaSpeed ones? And are they adjustable? Cusco or the like an option?

Advise as always, is greatly welcomed!

Tony C recently obtained some rather nice adjustable ones, I\'d ask him!

We spoke to the Manufacturer a while ago and they have agreed for us to sell them for them here and in europe.
I\'ll get pictures and prices up on site.

The racing beat ones are only adjustable on the rear, got a set off WGT last year.

Just put the rear onto the soft setting to see if it decreases my oversteer. Car was aligned on original Antiroll bars.

Unfortunately I do not know of any adjustable ones however you should be able to make up some links with spherical bushes quite easily if thats what you want.

We do have have a Racing beat front anti roll bar available at the moment, at £141 plus vat and £10 delivery but not the back bar.
 
We can also get proper Mazdaspeed roll bars in around 3 weeks at £420 plus vat per pair if required.

Well done Ed, forgot about Cusco.


Trouble is we have become distributors for so many company\'s over the years we forget just how much we can supply for these cars.

We can supply Cusco Anti roll bars for £192 plus Vat for the front and £140 plus Vat for the rear,

Cheers all, plenty of options, and I guess if only the rear is adjustable it should be able to alter the handling of the car enough for my purposes.

I\'ve got the Dragon ARB mount replacement / brace so no worries about them bending with the extra strain :D

But I\'m not to worried about losing body roll, as it\'s handling well at the mo\', but just want a quick and easy way to alter the handling, so not going for the hugest bar available as it\'s still my road car ;)


So let me see if I\'ve got this right:

RB - Hard to get (Gary may have them however) - Only rear adjustable. I\'ve heard mixed things.

MazdaSpeed - Not adjustable.

Cusco - Not Adjustable

Is that right? Gary, are you getting the RB ARB\'s available?

Ahem:




From Tri-point in the US. I put Gary into contact with my contact there so he should be able to sort you out. I got front and rear, but you can buy just front. not only does the arm have adjustment, but the tube can be bought in varrying thicknesses as well.

Ah, and in there lies the rub! Two main reason, I\'m not very flush at the mo\' what with lack of funds due to new house and second I\'ve not got huge amounts of time or the skill to do all the calcs to get the right thickness ARB, so would like something a bit more "plug and play" (moon on a stick I know ;) ).

But happy to see a final price on the Tri-Point ;)
