S1 Front Antiroll Bar Fitment

[Zircon450]

Do ALL S1 Elises have the SAME front antiroll bar fitted ?

[Scott_Mac]

Apart from the 190 and possibly the 160 too.... yes they do.

 

Spyder one is supposed to be good, as is the Eliseparts one.

111S ?

[Scott_Mac]

Same as std yes...

 

Am 99% sure the S160 has slightly stiffer, but know the 190 has.

 

All others are the same.

Is the Eliseparts one AKA the Gearry one ?

Eliseparts is run by Mr Geary Powell and his wife Joy. Hence people sometimes refer to Geary's this & that. All it does is spread cliquey confusion, as he doesn't trade under the Geary name.

Thanks Graeme, got it now.

 

I aAsked the boys at Sinclaires about my front end handling issue, (see elsewhere thread) and I asked if the 160 ARB would be a good mod.

 

They suggested Gearys (Eliseparts) adjustable.

 

I could also fit some new bushes to mine which might help.

 

The whole ARB is moveable by about an inch or so in any direction, as demonstrated on the day to me.

I can vouch for the Eliseparts ARB - I've just fitted the medium one on the middle setting to go with the other bits and the turn in is definitely sharper. Also worth checking every now and then as the mounts were totally fecked - though there was - for a change - no accompanying squeaks/creaks/rattles. A bit of the car that's well worth doing properly and keeping you eye on I think.

Thanks Mr G. - all noted.

 

I have to say the MOT process at the supplying dealership leaves something to be desired, but then they saw me coming anyway I think.
