    Funny this comes up on my tube home page. I actually installed both front and rear Whiteline sway bar kit on my spyder today. Haven't driven it in anger yet, but a short cruise to the service station and back this evening the car definitely was more stable. Still on oem springs and shocks, which I believe the sway bars will compliment well. I also put my buddyclubs with 225/245 nankang ar1's on ready for a good "spirited" run tomorrow.

      Turn in sharper, no body roll. I am still on stock struts, so a decent bump I still get a small amount of scrub with the tyres I am running.
      Will be doing a gymkhana/sprint with it Easter weekend, so will get some footage and put on my channel. 🙂

    That was great 👍 really useful, I started out just planning on changing out my manifold and exhaust, ended up taking all the crusty suspension arms off too, currently having a running battle with removing the drop links, after seeing this its now grinder time, great idea with greasing the hex socket every service.
    Have you done a vid of removing the rear hubs as they are in need of restoration but no idea how to tackle it. Thanks for the video really helpful

      Hey Vaughan, there is some discussion in one of the body kit videos about the from fogs, also if you have a look at my Instagram there is a pic that shows how they are held in. You have to take the front bumper off to replace them. One the bumper is off they are super easy to swap! Hit me up on Instagram if you need anything else 👍

    So, facelift models have more grip on the front and the rear has a slower frequency response, and if you compare with the before facelift changes in the parts/setup are tiny.
    be aware of the increase in frequency response you are going to get from the sway bar, I mean, watch out!

    • @DadDiaries

      @@DadDiaries Thanks for the info. I got the pair of Whiteline ARBs on sale recently, how are you finding them? I'm considering putting the rear one setting stiffer than full soft to attempt to tune out some of the reported understeer these cars may have. I doubt I'll feel it on the road as I don't think it's possible to feel that understeer at legal road speeds, at least I've never noticed it. Understeer can also but a result of weight transfer entering a corner or simply going to fast...hmm hopefully I'll get the car on track sometime in 21. Thx
