Which Rear ARB..

Is the 034 worth over £100 more?
How many of you have either? I know the 034 is pretty popular.
Thanks.

I went for the H&R - the 034 is slightly more adjustable but, in reality, who is going to bother once it is fitted.
The other upside I noticed was that it solved the pan roof creaking - shows how much body flex there is with the stock bar.
Thanks for the replies.
Do you all have it set on the stiffest setting?
Cheers.
I think oversteer was the issue on the 25th Nov Dell. Quality spin in the chickane (which was as slippy as a fish). Between you and me I suspect the instructor is looking for alternative jobs!
034 here, mainly because at the time I could find anywhere that sold the H&R rear only.
It was part of a set and I didn’t want or need the front arb.
034 here on its stiffest from the start, I thought I had an issue soon after fitting, but turned out to be a 20mm washed gravel stone off my driveway rattling about in the hollow wishbone, which was promptly removed.
front end turn in improved remarkably, I also then added the optional 8.5j 255 staggered set up.
Turns in like it’s on Velcro.

Did you find a big improvement with it fitted over OEM mate?

With H&R now selling rear only now - what would you of opted for?
Sounds really good.. I think every review I have seen of a aftermarket rear ARB especially on the 8P is always so positive.

Hmm having just being reminded of the H&R purply blue colour , which shouts modification to Audi, ( I was still in 5 yr warranty then)
I probably have still gone with 034 black, despite its logos and stickers, which soon weather off..
then only the brackets / grease points give it away.

I got the H&R bar then powder coated it black. Audi proof.
Catalunya Red ,Heated rear window,Power steering,Wireless (with FM),Seat belts,Servo assisted brakes.Pneumatic tyres. Disc brakes.
Here's a thought under what circumstance would the aftermarket ARB affect a warranty claim....none really tbh.
Dell.
true, but I couldn’t be bothered with the hassle or argument if there was an issue.
i had top mounts on the front replaced under warranty, I’m sure if it had been the rears , they would have tried to wriggle out of it, due to non standard part fitted as part of the suspension.

My H&R bar is black. Fitted in October so maybe there has been a change.
Anyway, given the general competence of the Audi Techs I doubt they would notice either way.

Stops a lot of body flex - had the pan roof creaking a lot before fitting and silent after. Worth it for that alone! No adverse effect on ride quality (for those in the fornt anyways - had the Outlaws over from Sweden in early Jan and they were looking a bit green after a 40 minute blast).
On the track it is a lot more pointy although the downside is you are at risk of both understeer and oversteer depending on the conditions / corner - you have to balance it better.

Surely nobody has warranty now on a 8/9 year old car.
