I'm not sure if these are a fairly new product to the evo market but I haven't seen anyone with a review on them. Has anyone installed these?

When I had my wrx I upgraded my steering rack bushings to the whiteline ones and it was the best $30 I spent on that car to improve the steering feel.

I'm hoping it could do the same to the evo. Any thoughts?

Now thats the goods my friend.

 

those are the whiteline products.. you can have them for $160 shipped

 

From what ive read, the steering precision kit does wonders for the Sti, but I havent heard anyone installing them on the evo... not a newer one at least.

Sport Compact Car had an article between the Sti and Evo, and the steering precision kit was installed on the Sti due to the mushy stock bushings. They said the Evo bushings were pretty stout, but I have yet to look at them personally.

 

I've got them both but haven't installed the steering kit yet... Actually I have all Whiteline products as I'm sponsored by them

I'll let you know when I've tried them out.

 

I have the Whiteline Bump/Steer kit installed.

I put these upgraded bushings in right after I installed my Swifts. Since everyone was basically done so close together, I can't really tell ya if it helped or what it helped.

 

anyone else out there has a review on these?

 

Rear bumpsteer kit definately helps on my JIC's I could tell the *** didn't want to jump to the side over a small bump, whereas before it'd like to kick out a bit. I'm ordering the front bump steer/steering kit soon and hopefully it'll eliminate some of the missing of front end grip over a bump, temporarily extra negative camber works.

 

bump steer correction kit, steering precision kit and roll center adjustment kit...hm... which one is the most imprtant in terms of improving handling? does whiteline's bumper steer correction kit made for front or rear?

 

Roll center kit (aka ball joint extenders) will have the most positive effect and increase overall grip the most.

Bump steer kit helps with consistency, stability, and feel.

Steering precision kit is strictly a "feel" upgrade.

I have the first 2 don't feel the need for the 3rd. Feels pretty frickin tight to me now.

 

Hey Speedelement, are you saying $160 shipped for both the steering kit and the roll center kit? What's the price for local pickup?

 

Steering precision kit, I know it is a very difficult install, anybody actually do it themselves?

Its always an easy install, when you pay someone to do it.

 

do you have to have a press in order to install the front roll center kit?

 

Yes, a press is needed to remove the old joints and get the Whiteline roll-center kit pushed in. You'll have to take care as the arms are aluminum and can be damaged much easier than steel. Overall, the job isn't too difficult, just time consuming.

The steering precision kit doesn't need a press, but the sub-frame will need to be lowered to access everything. Even easier than above, but takes more time.
