Installed Progres RSB on '07 Type S

Installed RSB today. Was very straightforward. Hardest part was trying to get the last bolt into the bushing mount. I did all the work from the ground without jacking the car up. Old RSB came out easier than I thought and it took 5-10 minutes to get the new one in. Took it for a drive and WOW. I put it on it's stiffest setting and the moment I pulled out of my garage my steering felt a lot tighter. Drove a couple of miles, took some turns and have to say this is a Mod well worth $145. My steering is definetly tighter just driving down the road. I remember test driving a used Type S when I was looking for a pre-owned and it felt a lot stiffer than some others I drove. I can only assume that car had this mod as they felt the same. Very easy to do as a DIY'er.

One of the best "bang-for-the-buck" mods for our 3G's.
