Racing beat has finally released their first set of parts for the 3! For less money than the Progress you get a 27mm bar, the option of upgraded endlinks, and an available front bar.

I like how they put the stoppers in to prevent shifting

Is there anywhere in Toronto that we can get these or only online from the states?

You unfaithful $lut.

At USD$135, after you factor in shipping, exchange, taxes and customs brokerage, I\'m fairly confident that the to-your-door cost still won\'t match Trac\'s price. Plus, you get to meet The Dad.

As for Racing Beat, product looks pretty good, but you will get dinged for customs brokerage as they use only UPS or Fedex (can\'t recall which). They don\'t ship USPS.

Anyone interested in getting in on a group buy for these bad boys.
I think we would save money on the brokerage costs too as they are usuall charged per shipment and not per individual item! (correct me if I\'m wrong)

The newest batch of Progress bars has ridges to prevent sliding.

afaik, the sliding is purely cosmetic.. (eg. doesn\'t affect handiling and/or tire wear) can someone verify?

also witha 27mm sway bar.. damn, how would the oversteer be?!?!?!

Oversteer.... Get the front one as well!!! Should be close to balanced with both of them !!.

And I would agree, the sliding of the sway bar is purely cosmetic. Kinda nice... but it\'s not going to change anything.

GB?? WHY?


All Aboard........Jump on the new part bandwagon........

Maybe it sux? Why run out and spend a cpl $100?? Let somebody else buy it and review it first. And let the price come down. Wait till the spring when you can actually use it.
