Default Top Speed Rear STB Installed (Pics)

Installed my TSA rear STB. Very sturdy actually, I was surprised. Took it for a fun run and the rear is very tight because that's the only other physical handling mod I have on the car right now. Couldn't wait for my RMM front STB which is arriving in two days. I'm pretty impatient So for the next day or two I'll be riding with crazy understeer, but it's okay for now

Well, got install pics for you guys cause i love ya ...

Thanks everyone!

The right side cut-out of the liner was a litttle bit sloppy. The left side was perfect. Took me two hours!

Spent about an hour and 15 minutes trying to cut everything right.

Rear is definately stiffened up. Not as much as sways would be, but it is a noticeable difference. I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who has experienced the difference of only adding the rear sway bar by itself w/ no other stb's or sways. So, yes, there is a noticeable difference.

Now I just can't wait until my RMM front comes in

Good job Brendan!!!! Soon you will have the ultimate GS that you dream of.

Question regarding the Front RMM STB - where the heck did you find one??? I cannot get one - RMM says there is no ETA, yet they are still taking orders...........

I know! Couldn't find one FOREVER, which is why I went for the RVM STB, then for some reason luck kicked in and RVM never got my order (I hope) and ThemisN was selling his RMM STB on Classifieds. I jumped on them knowing they were backordered.

It comes in tomorrow ... can't wait.

Hameed, just set the GS430/400/300 classifieds as your homepage on FireFox/IE
