Just wondering if anyone with sturt braces and/or upgraded anti-roll bars noticed a great difference after installation. I'm wanting the LEAST amount of body roll when turning.

Already on TRD struts and tanabe DF210's

 

I recommend the Progress rear bar. IMHO, the Hotchkis set-up is a waste of money.

 

why is the hotchkis set up a waste of money? I was thinkin about either getting the hotchkis or the progess and gtspec brace.

 

The Progress bar is great. I love it. The Hotchkis set has a rear bar that isn't as thick or sturdy as a the progress bar. I can't vouche for how well the front bar works.

 

Progress bar is great but Whitelines is way better

 

white lines?
whats that?

 

heres what the whitelines looks like :




heres where you can ordered : Look for Sean tell him Justin sent you ....

it fits xb with no alterations?

 

Not that I'm doubting your opinion, but what is it that makes this better than the progress bar? It looks like the only difference is the mounting to the stock bar and shocks.

It looks better, at least!

 

LOL, Put them both on,
Actuallhy It looks like with the Bushings there the Whitelines would be alot less stiff.

 

I doesnt need to be modified to fit xb or xa

 

And you guys think this is better ???


If the sway bar is installed this way... The rear axle is nothing but a Big rear sway bar just like the progress bar... The important part about rear sway bars is its mounting points... I race my echo on a regular basis and the Whiteline rear sway bar to me is a track tested item... The progress bar is nice but all it does is add structural integrity to the rear axle... While the Whitelines actually fights against roll or sway forces due to its mounting point...

And you dont want too put 2 or too large of a rear swat bar because it creates oversteer in a fwd car...

 

i think the progress looks ALOT better. hmm. maybe one could double up. do a little drifting.

 

I happen to like Snap oversteer.
Of course Suspension setup is a subjective thing, What I may prefer is not going to be what someone else likes.

Please dont take my statement of opinon as some sort of personal attack.

 

The set up i have is the hotchkis strut bar and goldline drop springs. I was gonna buy the progress and the gtspec frame brace. How much better is the white lines? Would you think I would need a front sway bar?
So which is better for cornering.
I guess you could put both on but why?

 

that whiteline bar looks very functional compared to the progress...

 

So which shoul;d I get?

 

I would suggest doing this ... leaving the front sway bar stock just upgrade the bushings with poly urthane and get the rear sway bar from whiteline and the rear frame brace...

my setup is

Jic Magic front Brace
Cusco mid brace


TRD Rear brace
Whiteline rear sway bar...

 

Where do I buy these pieces?

 

bro I dont know if you know ... I have an echo ... You cannot use the TRD rear brace without modding it ... But I suggest getting the Jic Magic brace, Cusco mid brace, GtSpec rear brace, and the Whiteline rear sway bar... you should be good for any track or canyon ... You can try talking to ENDLess4life on the board, see if he can hook you up on some of the Cusco stuff
