However, all strut bars are the same, with only the 4 cylinder one different. I have the M3 CSL strut bar in my 320i, and I recommend it if you're on top-adjustable shocks like the KW, as it has a hole on the base plate for you to reach in and adjust your front shocks. In contrast, ACS' strut bar has a solid base plate and totally covers up your adjustables.
Thicker ARBs only help improve traction only up to a point. Think of it as an inverted U curve, with an optimum point. Increasing understeer using thickness thus depends on which side of the curve you are on. Thicken some more, and the result reverses.
Example. The E46 chassis is dialled for inherent understeer. So what do you do? You thicken the anti roll bars. The understeer is dialled out but as you increase the stiffness some more, the understeer comes back on.So the best thing to do about improving your handling is to know where you are standing now, then improving those factors that matter. As for ARBs, visualise how the change is going to be, with respect to how it affects your contact patch.
The entire mother of all schools of thought about handling concepts, is actually your tyre contact patches. People mod here mod there only for one final purpose, and that's to optimise the contact patch of the tyres when they go through different actions. so think along that line.
speaking in generics here isnt going to help much. if you have a specific qn, list down and we'll try to help.

(1) how many ways adjustable, front & rear
(2) material used
Are the prices also inclusive of GST and insurance during freight?
The prices are inclusive of insurance and GST. The figure concocted was through a pal of mine working in a freight forwarding firm. So based on the cost of the sway bars/ARBs he calculated the total tax involved and thus I came up with the amount indicated above. Everything will be on black on white as this isjust my personal favour that I'm doing for the bros here and the Subaru Club boys :wavey:
I'll get back to you again on the Material used and adjustable points
1.) Material Used is BHP Top Grade Spring Steel. (XP9261S)
2.) There are 3 adjusting points for the adjustable sway bars.
The above is based on the reply i got from Whiteline.
Do you guys have anymore questions? Please let me know, will be more than glad to help out.

Thanks Ryan! Geez!! You guys are really from a different planet when it comes to the technicalities of car parts, specs etc...
Looks like I've got plenty of catching up to do to speak the same linguo as all of you!

I wouldn't mind doing this mod if it is not too expensive.
