Yes u're right that UR bars is available. But still not promote it yet to the market. I called my frenz who working at Kakimotor/Zerone and few performance shops @ sunway area. They said the UR bars is available but price cant be confirm.. Some more stock havent reach them. They only told me only eibach spring will available very soon. I called them ard 2-3weeks ago.
The UR bars official website sure got.. But can u find the pricelist in there??

front strud bars rm200

some time i just follow the flow

Seriously?! Very nice then.. Finally.. But abit pricey for the front strut bar.. Hmmm

Dear all sifus,

Vios 2010 1.5 A report in.. 60K milage.. Never got services by toyota services centre before.. I heard people say I can do a point services check around RM50++ to see which part need to change? can any sifu enlighten me on this..

Seriously, this Vios handling is really very flimsy...

As for bars, its really depends on what aspect u wanna enhanced.

Different bars give different enhancement.

For cornering, get ARB.

As above.

EPS for Vios is way too light. U barely feel the road feedback. This makes handling worst.

I used to whack 60' corners at 100km+... With this Vios... I barely reach 70km due to the flimsy road feedback and soft legs.

try Fiesta and u will know what I mean.


Why u wanna install a front strut in the first place?

Personally, I would got for ARB, and front lower 4 point bar. It stiffens the body roll and gives u better stability at corners.

Of course, this is just my opinion and personal preference.

As for my current Vios. I won't give it a damn anymore. Looking to change it in shortest possible time frame.

Yea totally agree.. Front strurt bar for me is nothing.. Maybe im not a hardcore driver so i cant notice it usage.. Maybe jz for deco only.. Rear ARB + front lower arm 4points is a MUST for hard corner whacker and highway maniac.. Other like room bar,rear lower arm bar,side bar,middle lower bar,rear boot bar,rear upper bar only help to harden ur chasis.. U wont feel much different but will make ur car become more bumpy feel.. Sharp corner whacker can try fender bar.. It reli help

** The latest 3rd gen vios come with rear ARB

My previous Focus do comes with ARB.. After upgraded to UR 16mm ARB... Cornering is much better.

Dunno much about bars lol. so ARB should be the first choice in improving overall handling?

from my 2 previous ride setup, yes.

but its quite costly compared to other bars... for my Kenari, it cost RM380, Focus RM580, i think Vios at least RM450.

Yes, mine previously installed 18mm arb.. 16mm for my myvi not reli work as suspension setup abit harden..

Rear Arb very useful for cornering.. It help ur car rear to counter oversteer so ur rear wont swing out.. More thick more soild feel.. But for normal suspension setting ride,too hard an arb also not so good.. It cant work properly compare those thinner arb

FYI,different car chasis need different thick rear arb.. All depend on ur chasis/suspension setting too

Oh. Got it.

So add front or rear first? for starters.

Ok,my kitty myvi experince is like this.. After changed to bigger shoes 17".. Handling reli improved.. Corner is suck!! So i got a set of tein lowered springs.. Wow,awesome cornering i did.. Day by day passed,feel turn back to like previously on oem springs.. So,i got my customade hi-lo-soft-hard adjustable.. Now,i attacked corner even greater than before.. Car got harden.. Stability slighly increased man!! When i used to it.. My car start encounter oversteer.. Damn.. Here was how my UR rear ARB 18mm (new version-the most thick for myvi.. Old version most thick was 19mm).. Too thick for a kitty ride so manufacture redesigned the arb thickness..

My oversteer problem gone.. But 1problem came with another ==! Wtfish!! Rear gotten stiffer but now car front encounter understeer.. Then is mean i went thru corner even faster?? With no think i got a front lower arm 4points.. Finally the problem solved.. I never face any undesteer/oversteer till my car sold

Too make a sharper corner, i got the side fender bars.. It helped for a K-car known as a hatch-back car, rear upper bar which installed above the rear seats reli made u feel the rear part become solid.. For my case,Highway and corner can notice the different..

If u a cornering lover.. Yes front lower arm 4points and rear arb is a must but dont make ur car too low.. Ur undercarriage become lower and this is how the famous front lower arm bar easily get scratches.. But who bother the scratches?! The performance is still there what..

If u wan to feel the usage of each bar, u can try install it 1by1 piece i talked too much also wont help much.. Maybe hard for u to understand bro.. Hehe.. Try urself experience urself enjoy it ^^
