I'm Not That Familier With The Furby Chassis. If Its Based On The Vw Polo Then The Old G40 Polo Used To Use A Rear Arb. If Not Then It May Be Possible To Get A Golf 4 On There Instead. I Bet There's Not Much Difference In The Rear Axles, Albeit A Shorter Track. You Could Connect The Arb Rose Joints On The Outside Edge Of The Trailing Arms Instead Of The Inside. If You Look At A Recent Thread Named 'finally Fitted' You'll See What I Mean. Provided The Axle Brackets Fit I Reckon It Will Go On. Neuspeed Do Both A 25 And 28 Mm Rear Bar Both With 3 Stiffness Settings. The 25mm Bar Would Probably Be Better With The Car Being Lighter. It Is Worth The Effort Of Trying To Get A Rear Arb, They Really Do A Good Job Of Sorting Understeer.

The Only Other Thing You Can Do Is Remove The Front Bar And Run Stiffer Springs And Dampers. This Lets The Wheels Work Independantly So The Inside Front Wheel Doesn't Go Light. This Is Obviously At The Expense Of Ride Quality.

Thanks for the info. Already running stiffer springs and dampers which have reduced body roll significantly, but I just want to reduce it even more ;)

ARB vs diff? Diff every day... Traction is excellent.

ARB helps turn in, but is'nt going to help if you just spin the inside wheel up.

Hey guys, it's been a while.

I have a peloquin LSD installed on my 2002 octavia elegance. I'm running a T3 Super 60 turbo at 15psi to redline on a daily basis (22psi to redline when I'm overly hyper), but I'm at 8500ft of altitude so that's like 12psi for people at sea level. In any case, I'm running like 220whp with peak torque at 4500RPM. My tires still screach in 1st on a straight line and a good suface (both screach). The tires are Goodyear F1-Ds2 225x45 tires on 17 inch alloys. Beyond 15psi the tires squeal in 1st and screach in 2nd.

I used to be one of those people that said... "LSD, that's for junkies"... well... NOT AT ALL! I love my peloquin. that's the best USD850 I ever paid USD700 + 150 bucks installation (haha, I'm in Colombia so installation was cheap!!!!). It's been said before, but without it, your car doesn't know what traction is. Also, big HP cars can easily blow up their transmisions if they DON'T upgrade their differentials. The stock differentials are known to blow up and break your tranny while drag racing. The added load due to an LSD doesn't go to the tranny. The next weakest link is the axles. Those break a lot more often than any part in the tranny does. There's people out there running more than 500hp on O2J trannies (5 speed). O2J trannies were installed on VR6 cars, and several people turboed them to more than 400hp. The newer 6 spd trannies are said to be bullet-proof.

Doesn't the Fabia vRS have electronic diff lock anyway?
