ARBs for IS200/300 - specs and info
ARBs for IS200/300 - specs and info
Here is some info on uprated ARBs that I got together a while back, whilst I was trying to decide which ARBs to get for my IS200 (I got C-Ones in the end). Not all the information is complete, as you will see, but I thought it might still be helpful.
Brand/Colour/Front Stiffness/Rear Stiffness/Bushes ?
TTE(Eibach)/Red/?/?,?,?/no
TRD/Blue/+49%/+99%/yes
TRD/Yellow/+49%/+99%/?
C-One/Red/+60%/+100%/yes
Cusco/Blue/+140%/+125%/no
Hotchkis/Red/+56%,+61%/+144%,+227%/yes
Tanabe/Red/?/?/?
HKS/?/+130%/+116%/?
The "Bushes" bit indicates whether new bushes are included in the kit. Where multiple percentages are given for either front or rear, then that means the bar is adjustable.
A lot of these ARBs are hard to come by though, e.g. unavailable or only from Japan.
The TTE ones aren't available any more. The TRD ones are pretty hard to find outside of eBay. C-Ones and Cusco are sold by a certain online seller whose name starts with "P".
Hotchkis are available from L-Tuned, as well as eBay US.
I got my Hotchkis from Titan Motorsports for 300USD (plus 140usd shipping charges). They also provide yellow TRD sway bars for 485usd.
