probably correct.
i've had a buckle almost exactly the same looking as that. couldn't feel it at all.

Dis-agree, ive got set of buckled rims sitting in the garage, similar to whats shown, whilst drive at 100kmp/h vibrations is terrible! low - mid speed range its ok, noticeable but bearable to drive

Most rim repairers places would attempt to fix it, but always 50/50 that it will crack if tried to repair an get thrown away, happened to me once

How much and where from? Noticable difference?

The rim is hardly buckled.

even though it is damaged, I doubt it will feel it while driving.

I'm just going on my own past experiences.

when i was driving home i could feel a little vibration on the steering wheel while only doing 60-70kph,when i got home i saw it and jacked the car up and spun the wheels to see and you can just see it straight away it was stuffed,also to i need a new wheel alignment the steering is out from that.

$283 + $10 shipping for Whiteline reinforcement kit and 22mm rear sway bar from Online Peformance in Melbourne. Difference: not dramatic as I'm already on coil overs but theres now a tendency to oversteer lol.

$60 shipped for c pillar bar from eBay USA diff: prob none just there for the bling, have rear strut tower bar installed in boot too.

With everything in rear end feels significantly stiffer.

pretty cheap nice buy man,22mm is a bit big dont you recon ? mainly for the track you would use those sizes? ive only got a GLI 22mm on the front and a EM1 stock rear sway bar 14mm i think on the rear and it oversteers if i push it, cant imagine how much oversteer you would be getting with all that work.

yeah probably is a bit over kill but I was getting bored of the stock 14mm RSB lol

And I was under the impression the DC2R and EK9 ran a 22mm RSB

Dont those whiteline sway kits tear the subframe out of ek's?

nope, this is the revised version (1 piece bar runs from 1 side to the other) previous 2 piece kits would tear the subframe straight off!

certainly doesn't look like a one piece bar.

You have pillow ball mount each side (?) and bar in the middle, hex adjustments on either side.

if it is indeed pillow ball, would be @ least 5 pieces there, not one.

if not pillow ball, then looks like 3 piece bar.

hes talking about the brace dude

You need to learn to read m8 even a preschool child could work out that the pic you just referred to above is the Whiteline V1 2 piece mounting kit with a rear lower tie bar of which I used to illustrate their original design, the pics of the1 piece bar I installed is a few posts above...

WATAJK!
