    Audi RS2 FARB.

    I am considering selling my Audi RS2 front anti roll bar complete with brackets and bushes and i would like to know what the going rate seems to be for these.

    Not 100% decided to sell it yet as it was difficult to find but at the moment i do not need it due to coilovers.

    Thanks in advance,

    Dan.

          Are these still available new? would be nice to know a new price if they are available new as it would help with pricing mine fairly.

          Cheers,

          Dan.

            Back in the day they were about £120 but then went NLA before coming back at something in the £200-£250 bracket.

              What is the advantage of these, do they not increase understeer ?

                When fitted in conjuction with an uprated rear anti roll bar the handling is improved considerably and understeer reduced. Some members will be along shortly to give you their first hand experience.

                  mine is on an Avant, but that and the RS4 rear make a hell of a difference.

                      Check out s2_bo's project thread, both suspensions are coilovers and so hard it means they do not need arb's iirc

                          Basically, the stiffer the springs you use, the less effect the ARB has up to a point where it just becomes dead weight.

                            noticed using the H&R's and stock ARB that roll is still pretty considerable so the rs2 one would certainly help iron some out, when you settle on a price let me know

                              That's becasue the HnR springs are only fractionally stiffer than stock! (see my recent threads) Coilovers used around 400lb springs, double that of the HnR coupe springs.
