Lots of nice stuff, planning on the front strut bar, sway bars, diff and subframe bushings myself.

We cannot wait for their sways. In our Last three Evos we used nothing but Whiteline and plan to do the same with the FRS cars we have.

What are the drop links used for?

Those are just rear end links.

Do you know if Whiteline has released the diff mounts yet, I see them on the flyer, just want to know if they can be bought.

JoeBoxer 10-19-2012 06:25 PM

Probably about a month out from what i hear...

2 months on the sway bars.

Not at the moment.

I am sure after SEMA that lots of these parts will start to become available. We'll try to confirm while we are down in Vegas for the show:thumbup:

Cheers!

Are these just to make the suspension firmer/better? Or do I need these if I lower my car?

Racecomp Engineering 10-19-2012 07:34 PM

They allow you to take preload out of the swaybar. That can be an issue with bigger drops on coilovers but it's also nice to have for any track car. Plus they're stronger than stock.

Interesting they are offering so many different size swaybars.

I just see two sizes each for front/rear. The extra pic looks like it's for a package w/ endlinks and braces, but still just 16/18 for the rear.

They may list more on their site, but if so it's just because the rear bar is shared with 08+ Imprezas. So you'll see 20/22/24mm bars listed for sale for BRZ/FRS even though you'd be nuts to try it with anything but crazy grip.

I consider that to be a lot given most manufacturer's only settle on 1 size for front and rear.

Some news regarding release dates
Still under development NO ETA for release.

More info on the diff/cradle mounts needed NOW!

Circuit Motorsports 10-20-2012 01:42 AM

We'll be out there at SEMA and get some good pics and media of the new Whiteline stuff!

We have carried the line awhile and like what they offer.

JoeBoxer 10-20-2012 02:46 AM

About the swaybars i'm surprised to see Eibach and Hotchkis are 25.4mm front and 19mm rear, those are really big compared to the Whiteline and everybody else.

86drift 10-20-2012 04:16 AM

I have the 20mm on the front and 16mm on the rear. It's awesome stuff.
I wouldn't go any larger. Since they're adjustable you can stiffen them up if you want.
I found on hard (with the standard shocks) the car gets too unsettled over bumps. Whiteline do a lot of R&D and these products are the result.

I'd expect most of their products to be available by the end of the year, hopefully sooner.

Could some one please explain the anti-dive castor kit? Where do those bushes go? How do they work?

The eibach bars are hollow, so the effective diameter is smaller. They're still pretty big though. Were running whiteline bars right now.

Did they mix up the "positive traction kit" and "crossmember kit?" Seems like the labels should be switched according to the picture....

Super excited about the new products.

20mm is fine unless you are running wide, sticky tires. I'd still take whiteline over cusco though but 20/16 should be plenty for all but track cars.

_F-R-S_ 10-20-2012 09:25 PM

Thanks man any more setup info for autocross? Like a stiff handling
