EOI: GROUP BUY : Upgraded anti roll bars from Superior Suspension

[2000VR-4]

Hi guys, I have just noticed this and would be interested in the new year.
I am noticing more and more that my car either likes to push on throttle or back off and stomp it to get the ass out and cnr'ing. Any reco's on the best way to fix this? Would these anti roll bars work? Sorry I have parts 1,2 and 4 of the HPI story so missed the sway bar bit

Not sure

Is there a ralliart equivalent?

I have never heard of ralliart anti roll bars for VR-4's

There are a heap of brands in Japan that offer Anti-roll bars and all sorts of under body bracing to stop flex, roll and stuff.
I was under the impression that there was a limited run of TME VR-4's?? If this is true you would have to assume that they had uprated suspension.
See if you can chase a tune house in Japan called PRO-S, they actually had a VR-4 as a test mule for many years and did sus work aswell as performance and I think some body kits, I know they exist but can't find them others may have better luck

No such thing as a TME VR-4, where did you get that thing from?

Pro's did do a coilover kit but I'm not sure about antiroll bars

I was pretty sure I read it somewhere. Probably just a magazine calling a modified car that (Thats how the R32 got named GODZILLA, because an Australian car mag called it that). The pics I saw was a Galant with EVO VI Style bonnet, front bar and rear spoiler, it was red with EVO VI 1/2 TME stripes.
Looked pretty cool :-P

So has anyone purchased a set yet?

 

[jungle]

Yes and you guys will be paying full price now

 

[Guest]

So if we pick it up locally is it $495 then?

 

[jungle]

I would imagine so, give them a call

 

[Guest]

I phoned them up today.
Front 24mm adjustable RRP$275 Part Number SMF701A
Rear 27mm adjustable RRP$275 Part Number SMR701A

As they are a distributor they said try Pedders suspension or Repco to order them.
OR if you can order them through a business they will be cheaper and can then order from them. Something like that.
I'll update with a trade price and hope to order some this month.

They can be made in about 3 days she said.


Hey Simon what setting have you got yours on?

 

[jungle]

Softest on front and back

 

[SiliconAngel]

Yes and you guys will be paying full price now

You can't spend if it you haven't got it

Let us know what you can work out Jase - I'm still keen for a set of these, especially now I've got some cash.

 

[Guest]

If you can get them trade or get someone you know to order them then they will be about $195 each. So anywhere from $195-$275 each.

Hey jungle, so how much of a difference do they make compaire to a stock set?

I can't comment on that, i don't have stock suspension either so it's really a moot point.

Is it better- yep heaps but it really depends on what you like. As i said to Emanuel, you need to set them bars up to what you like. Try them on different settings and see how it goes. We;ve all got different tyres and that will effect it as well.

Try this.

front middle- rear softest. If it understeers go 1 harder rear.
If still understeers, go 1 harder on rear, if still under steers go hardest. If still understeers, go 1 softer on front., if still understeer you need to revise your spring rates.

Conversely front middle, rear softest with over steer, go hardest on front,
if still over steer revise your spring rates.

Hope that helps.

hi all

I wonder if any of you guys can help me. I placed an order with Superior Suspension last year and paid for a custom roll bar which I needed shipping to me here in the UK. I've just called to confirm payment for the shipping and been told they have gone into liquidation.
Does anyone have any other details? Are Matt & Gary still around anywhere?

Sorry to post here, but its one of the only searches google returned which had anything to do with cars!
