Re: The Suspension Thread
Thanks, ![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)
ordered those standard ones from ebay and adjustable ones for the rear:
http://www.nolathane.com.au/product_det ... mber=42733 $90 by price matching through Repco.
Let me dig Shaine's post on what mods he did to the stock rear sway bar mounts to use them with the Whiteline's bar.

Re: The Suspension Thread
Just as an FYI. If you have a Version R, the poly front sway bar bushes don't fit.
Rears also sit a bit loose.

Re: The Suspension Thread
Has anyone fitted a Cusco lower front strut brace? I've seen the Whiteline one, but the fixings are slightly different in design.

Re: The Suspension Thread
Not Ultra Racing, Cusco.
Sway bar = anti-roll bar in the UK (but not this)
I'm specifically referring to the lower front strut brace. I have a the standard GPvR upper front and rear braces and a rear lower strut brace. I've been offered a lower front strut brace but the seller states the fittings are missing. Without seeing one fitted, I have no idea of the fittings required in terms of where they go and what they are.
