Just fitted a Whiteline adjustable rear bar.Well worth the money.No more initial turn in understeer.A bit of a fiddle to fit but only ended up taking 90 minutes.Once you get the diff down far enough it isn't too bad.Can't wait for the next track day to see how different settings work:)

No photos at the moment sorry
1 Jack the car up as high as you can & place on stands(I put them under the
jacking points of the sills
2 Remove the nuts from the swaybar link to suspension arm (one nut on each
side)
3 Remove the two diagonal braces between the front & rear subframes
4 Loosen the big bolt that goes through the subframe into the rear of the diff
5 Loosen the bolts that hold the alloy mounts to the front of the diff then
6 Loosen the bolts that hold the alloy mounts to the body
7 Place your trolley jack under the diff and remove the alloy mounts
completely
8 Remove the big bolt from the rear of the subframe
9 Lower the diff GENTLY until the RH driveshaft rests on the exhaust
9a I have a standard exhaust if you have a big diameter pipe you may have
to drop the pipe down
10 Remove the 4 bolts holding the swaybar saddles to the subframe
11 You can now remove the swaybar.....dropthe left hand side of the bar
down and take it toward the front of the car it will come out about half
of it's length then you need to start rotating the bar like a big corkscrew
12 Now you can put your shiny newone in....just reverse the procedure just
need to make sure the end of the bar goes in UNDER the driveshafts.It is
a bit fiddly but take your time and be gentle and in she goes!
13 Once you get the bar in the right place hold the bar up and slip on the
saddles that keeps it out of the way while you bolt the diff back up.

Hope thats clear enough,I will get a few photos up soon as soon as I work
out how to do it.

THINK SAFETY
If you don't have the right gear Don't do it!
If you are mechanically challenged Don't do it!
If you need help ASK someone who knows
Cheers Darryl
