Cool Getting Anti Lift Kit Fitted

Have been advised that an Anti Lift Kit will help me.

I'm getting a Whiteline Kit, My mate has it in his WRX so I thought I'd stick with what I'd heard of.

Will help with front end Lifting
And acceleration when turning into a corner?

Any forum members with this kit? Would love to hear feed back before I pick the car up this arvo.

I have a Perrin one. That and Wheels World doing a sports ( Street not silly ) wheel alignment completely transformed the car. Brilliant on the turn in and the amount of power you can put down coming out of corners.

I had it fitted to my gc8 wrx combined with a whiteline rear swaybar, (yet to get around to doing the new car) but i highly recommend it.

but also google 'rex on rails' on the whiteline website, that covers it well.

Thanks Jim621, that seems like an auto response from alot of old school forum users ( have a search/use the search/ why don't you use the search)

Honestly. It has been covered before! But like so many people getting peeved off with the search.. I'm sick of it.. Its crap man.. It finds info sure!! But old as hell posts and hardly ever is it relevant to what your looking for. Everyones experience is different and 1000's of new members join up ever day.

On a side note: I will google the rex on rails.

And the car is at home in gaurage as I type, handles amazing!! It turns into corners like its on rails!! Full foot to the floor and no front end jerking up at all.

I got it done by the boys at RMS Service Centre in Perth. Got a list of things done but the Antilift Kit was around the $500 mark including 4 wheel w/alignment.

Apparently you need to car sitting flat on level ground and do the torque sequence right on all the bolts in the big horseshoe brace thing. If you don't do it right it is not a good thing.

Getting under the car without a pit might be difficult. You need a wheel alignment anyway so get a pro to do it.

I have an ALK fitted, noticed the difference straight away, much better turn in, can keep the power down through corners much more, feels more direct into corners.
