Making a meridian handle well?

[Alan_M]

I did a lot of work on mine last year. I rebuilt and fitted a Xsara VTS beam, New B4 shocks all round, new wishbones, new TREs, new BJs, new top mounts, VTS front ARB and new rubbers. Handles nicely, very predictive and can lift a rear wheel if pushed.

About to swap the B4s, as they're a bit soft when pushing, for B8s. Giving a slimmer front ARB a try too. Coupled with the VTS rack I've got to go on, the car should be hoot to drive.

is the VTS anti roll bar thicker than a gti6 one?

Bit of a breakdown for you;

                   Meridian/GTi6/VTS

Front ARB - 19mm/21mm/21mm
Rear ARB -  19mm/24mm/24mm
TBs          -  19mm/20mm/21mm

VTS beam arms have different toe/camber settings too. Decent upgrade if you can grab one.

Kam Racing have the B4 kit for £160. As for springs, I ran VTS ones but most go for the Eibachs.
