Going back to the original question-Peoples opinions on which arb's are best varies,but from what i've read the Eibach kit seems good value for money.

If you just want to drop your car and don't drive like a maniac any front arb will be fine,avoid the FK one though,it doesn't allow big drops.

My mate ran one for a week and it kept rubbing on his drive shaft,so he changed it for a whiteline bar.

best bet is to pick a corner you know you get loads of understeer while trying to go round, fit the rear ARB then try the same corner. You will love the difference it makes
