Coupe Rear ARB options aka FARB on the rear of a coupe

[Rusty]

Right. Just get a 22 or 24mm front bar and team it with an RS2 front then. If you're going for stripped interior then anything more might be a touch of overkill, have a go and see what you think.

[quattrostyle]

do it Patrick, but maybe get a 22mm bar off a basic 80 or 90 for better balanced set-up with the standard front bar

I will probably, but I won't be able to test it since the car is not alowed on the road now...

Newsh needs to get one next

[madwolf_Uk]

but damn that car flys!!

[Rusty]

Yeah, 135 over Avon Rise on part throttle was rather impressive!

I've just mounted Andy's 24mm FARB cast-off on the rear of my S2. What was the conclusion on which drop links to use?

[Rusty]

Stock ones fit but they're a tad long, some adjustable whiteline ones would do well.

[4WheelDrifter]

I noticed the original links looked a tad long, hence my question. But I guess you (and others?) have been using the stock ones to good effect.
I might shorten the originals slightly.
At least RS2 FARB drop links are a lot cheaper than S2 RARB links, last time I checked.

[Rusty]

Make sure you protect the brake lines

[4WheelDrifter]

Will do if they look like a problem. Thanks.

[Rusty]

They almost certainly will be close. Mine have fuel hose protecting the rubber, it works perfectly.

I bought 25mm poly mounts from Summit racing...
Bought a tie rod from pegueot (306 i think) and shortened it a bit
Mounted the tirod in stock position and into the RABR..

The FARB at rear works really nice.. im now planning to remove my FARB completely to try that.

I see alot of guy buying expensive adjustable Swaybars. but eeh duug.. most of them doent even know what adjustment that is good.. duuh.. Most ive seen runns as hard as possible.. lol..

Nice get a 22mm FARB instead of ditching it completely, unless you're running properly stiff springs

I think you should have some Knife blades in hand from one of those "expensive" kits before you start to make many more judgments.

It's not even comparable to a stock or messed about with bar.

And also try some suspension with more adjustment
