it you can't lose the front arb or the suspension will fall apart, lots of the us guys lose the rear arb but they have flatter faster tracks to play on and tend to run much stiffer springs all-round.

arb does not control the body roll the springs do that, they fine tune the diagonal weight transfer as the body rolls, balance out understeer/oversteer.

Did you get the geo-setup done, after getting the m3 done it stopped trying to kill me down through duffus dip at knockhill.

the thing with arbs is, they need upgrading WITH the suspension. stiffer springs/shocks etc doesnt mean less body roll. the car will roll less with stiffer springs but the antiroll needs uprating with it. stiffer front anti roll means more understeer. stiffer rear antiroll means more oversteer.

petek, you need to weld your diff. only then can the FUN begin. yes, theres a trade off in tight turns and wheel skip and resistance but its all good fun everywhere else!

if your a man, do it!

or atleast but another open diff, weld it and try it!? atleast they you can say you dont like it.......

I hated havin a welded diff. Was alright on the loose but was a proper chore on road. Just my opinion tho.
