yeah thought that might be the case

Hi here is a quick pic of my brace, thats the only one i got at the moment, notice how it bolts to the chasis via heavy duty bracket instead of subframe, i will provide feedback when i get my car on the road
-
Wow thats real nice man, looks real sturdy! is that the asr 32mm hollow swaybar, or did u piece the bar/arms/bushings together from a race parts supply store?
-
Yeah thats the ASR kit doesnt look like $833 does it (cry), see how it performs when i get the car going, later.
-

Yeah its a litttle expensive to get the asr kit sent over, i was looking at the asr kit till i found out the price to get it on my doorstep . Absolutly top notch qualitly ive heard though . Im looking at putting somthing together along those lines from
http://www.1speedway.com/Online_Catalog.htm they sell the hollow 1.25" splined bars in various lengths, bushings, arms etc for a cheaper price.
Do you mind me asking what ur swaybar mounts are made of, and how they perform. The reason i ask is that the speedway engineering bushings are a bronze liner, cushioned by a thin layer of rubber, i believe the ASR kit uses the same style mounts? Do they require any form of lubriation, and do they make any excessive grinding noises being metal on metal? im guessing not. they offer a choice of the plain bushins as above, but also simular ones with a grease nipple which seems to push grease between the bronze lining, and the swaybar, but if there are no excessive gringing issues with the plain bushings, id probably stick to them.
Cheers

The kit itself without swaybar should cost around 320AU to your door. Thats the price of purchasing 3 at a time.

Sorry im confused, what does that 320 buy you? The quote i got from asr was like 530US or somthing for the swaybar kit (without brace). Iv got an ek and already have an asr subframe brace. Im after a swaybar, 2 arms, 2 mounts, 2 lockcollars, 2 endlinks, which ill be getting from speedway engineering.

What he got was only the mega brace thing. No endlinks, thats probably why the price is diffferent

The swaybarbar mounts are some sort of solid bush, as far as im aware of they dont require lubrication, i let you know how the kit performs when i get the car back on the road, havnt driven it yet, i wish i could help you with the measurements as that website you provided can put together the same thing, but your car is a bit different because your bar mounts on the subframe with brace and mine mounts on the chassis with heavyduty brackets, this would mean that your arms would be shorter, if you find someone with the kit on a EK ask him to measure it all up and you can put a kit together yourself cheaper, My kit come with the bar,solid mounting brackets and bushes, aluminium arms with 4 holes to adjust stiffeness, spherical aurora links and the steel brackets which hold the bar on, i wont forget to get back to you with feedback and if you have any other questions about the kit feel free to ask, i'll also provide more pics when i get some, later.
