The whiteline ARB should further stiffen the back end to resist understeer a bit more. This is a good thing.....
Its an adjustable bit of kit,yes? 3 settings: over-steer-bias's,neutral,under-steer,iirc.Definately a GOODthing....esp if the back end comes out to play more often

Hi Tuttle.
The "boxed in" intercooler on Mr E's beauty is a chargecooler (water) hence the reason for the boxing!
Mr E! As regards the whiteline rear ARB......GET ONE!!!!
Ive got one fitted to the back of the GT4 and the difference under power in the corners is unreal.
It corners flat, and i mean flat. You get a sense of the rear actually powering you thru the corners instead of being dragged round and wallowing with the standard setup.
And at no point does it ever feel that its gonna go squirly on ya.
Suspension setup on mine is Koni adjustables up front, Kayaba (kyb's) on the rear, Apexi progressive springs drop it around 25mm from standard.
Front ARB is best left alone on these cars, apart from uprated bushes..Superflex i think made in OZ??? cant remember right now.
Rest of the suspension rubbers are all Superflex as well, and they make a big difference in how solid it all feels.
And then theres the Whiteline rear ARB.
Get the tracking done asap on a laser alignment jig...had mine done at Demon Tweeks and was an instant improvement over the original setup.

Thanx Deltaf,agree with getting a good suspension setup,its sooooo important-can really change a car.Good wheel alignment/camber etc,done on a proper rig can make instant improvements too.-& makes your tyres last longer(£80-100 well spent).
These poly power/super-flex bushes;I've heard a lot of ppl say how much better their car is afterwards,& they're not a lot more to buy than manufacturer standard.Mebe when mine need changing I'll go for some-any links for info/bumpf anyone?

oh bolloques its some kind of 'new fangled'water cooled jobbie.
...........I'll get me coat then......
Charge cooler. There's a rad in the front that cools the bugger down.
Gives more consisitant cooling than a FMIC, but is not as good as a FMIC for huge boost.
ARB will be a 3 stage adjustable jobbie...
And yes, once the suspension is done and the superleggras are on we'll be having a 4 wheel alignment.....
It's a forgotten supercar...
