I managed to get a Xsara VTS beam a little while back for £50 (winnarrrr). I know the torsion bars are 21mm (i.e. thicker than the GTi-6 TBs), but what about the anti-roll bar?
I always thought that the only real difference between the two was the torsion bars, but I've heard some people suggest otherwise. Can anyone confirm?
Cheers

Yeah, 21mm TBs and 24mm ARB.

And a GTi-6 is a 24mm ARB, so that's the same. Awesome.

Yep as above, phase 2 Xsara beams had a smaller ARB, phase 1 is the same as a six. Get a hybrid ARB in there!
