recommended to get asr brace..
it will break sooner or later man.. due to flexing and road conditions, etc...

* Better do it rite first time than suffer in the end which will cost more $$$..

or just save some money then get the stuff (new or 2nd) btw jdmyard on sale atm..

Alternatively, if you tend to use it for daily driving.. and no hard cornering, etc - then the 24mm sway bar is not used for its potential.. so you can go for eg5 vti swaybar with strut bars and tie bars will be more than enuf for daily driving

hope that helps

I agree do it right the first time.
I was running that set up, nice and stiff. I can only imagine the forces on the subframe.

google search it, it shows u pics without the asr, it rips the chassis

i was running around with the standard vti sway bar and the dc2r one made heaps of difference even in daily driving

i too recommend getting the brace installed just in case mate, i have hear of people in the states running just the sway bar and they swear that it's ok, but after seeing the pics of ripped subframes i didn't want to risk it

now i just need to get me a decent front swaybar

You cant mount it without the brace.....

yeh get the brace and the sway bar,i did it to my eg5 front n rear n it handles great wit stock springs n shocks,but u can't mount it wit out the brace, it won't go on,it doesn't line up and not level 4 the d-brackets,it doesn't take long either but better if u hav a hoist then doin it on the ground

haha im not baller liek u hai , give me money for asr

asr will be cheaper in the long run compared to a torn out subframe man in which u will need to find another one and weld that in, in the case that nothing else is damaged!

If you are on a budget you could try the beaks mounting kit or a BSQ kit but ASR have never had a failure i know the beaks have had a couple in the states.
