    This is definitely on the to do list, but just to confirm, you haven’t got one on your Tig yet?

    Curious to find out how much of a difference it makes (I couldn’t find it in your thread but I may have missed it…)

    I have h/d adjustable rear swaybar (whiteline) and front anti lift kit, it makes a huge difference, without compromising comfort...

    Very Nice! Just had a look on their website - LOT's of handy info to read through. Now to see if I can find it in english...

    Did you get both done at the same time?

    Yes, initially had H&R h/d adjustable, that broke after 2 years. Supplier offered me whiteline at cost and suggested i also do anti lift kit.
    have started on softest setting, but might go to middle setting.

    very happy with the result...!

    Woah! You snapped a heavy duty sway bar!? Good effort lol. Im impressed

    Has the anti lift made more of a difference with the sway bar in your opinion? Or should you have just stuck with the sway?

    P.S. Soz for hijacking your thread for a bit team_v

    the H&R was also adjustable, but not the heaviest they made...and it was hollow...could have had it sent back for replacement, but return freight costs to USA, and the risk it could happen again, as apparently their had been a few broken ones, made me go for his option to get whitelines at cost.

    Also, as the H&R (from memory 26mm) was on stiffest setting, and I felt a bit more wouldn't go astray, i went for heavier duty whiteline, thinking to start at softest setting.

    Supplier (through whiteline) offers a few other bits and pieces, but after talking to the man, went with his suggestion that anti-lift (and camber) kit was best bang for the buck.
    No regrets, car has better turn in (like i know what I'm talking about...(- and tyres wear better and more evenly. When I first drove it away, after having put OEM bar back on in the meantime, it made a HUGE difference, but you soon get used to it.

    BTW, i have a daily commute up and down the range, so plenty of bendy bits...

    No suspension work done on mine yet.
    I have been speaking with Tigga1 though and heard about his swaybar dilema in detail.

    Hopefully with a heavier duty bar and the anti-lift kit it will only add to the driving pleasure through the twisties.

    Thanks Tigga. Am in agreeance with you there team_v

    Will also look into springs or coilovers when its time as well as I want the Tig to be able to handle the extra power no matter where its planted

    So the LED's took a week to leave Hong Kong, hopefully they will be in before the Sceneic Rim cruise.


    Gave the car a wash and took some photos of it for you all.



















    And some of the lights.
    Firstly the standard parkers and then the normal beams with the uprated Osram Rallye bulbs.

    Its a great looking ride Team_V. Still in great condition and unique from what I've seen.

    Good work
