Also a few guys in the US have the yellow ones on their IS300's so when I found some for sale new and still in packaging, took the chance!
Liking the title now fully fledged

Is fitting ARBS a job you could do yourself in your own garage.

The droplinks come off with some sort of allen key fitment. My front drop links were ruined when I replaced mine and needed replacing if I wanted to make the swap.

Was Supercharged Racing Green IS200 Sport. Now APR Stage 1 Seat Leon Cupra (220 Bhp).
Mole - From what i saw when WIM were fitting mine the only hard part is the drop links - the rest is easy, just bushes and brackets. The ARBs are really accesible if you can get under the car.

Dont want to take the arbs off then have to go and get new droplinks. would rather have everything I need before the job starts.

Mr Mole Is fitting ARBS a job you could do yourself in your own garage.
I have got a set of TTE red ARBS in my garage waiting to get fitted.
I've had them for about 3 months now
hock:far too long mr mole come on get em on pasted from another persons how to -
why do people have so much bother with these drop links....easy way to remove................
1)clean up the threads with a wire brush.
2)spray on a penatrating oil and leave for approx 15,20 min's
3)removing the nut job done.............if it doesn't
if you've not go a set of mole grips go buy a pair
on the drop links you will find a sholder(the bit that buts up against bracket on the strut)adjust the grips so you really have to force them shut then hold the grips while undoing the nut job done!!!!!and no need to buy new ones!!
I would have done them myself but don't have a lot of my stuff since I moved house, however it did only cost £35 for the garage (HI-Q) to do them!!
dimis Looks good mate, nice arbs. Tell us your first impressions. I bought last week from titan motorsports hotchkis arbs for 300usd.
I will do, will be test driving next weekend i expect now as in bodyshop and going away til friday, looking forward to it.

russelllinn I am not too sure on the difference between the two, I think that I read somewhere that the red ones were adjustable but can't be sure?I've posted up a thread with some (albeit incomplete) specs on some of the various uprated ARBs for the IS200/300, here.
