yeah they are I believe Smile

I think Chris Perose aka 309pug can still do them too, might need to PM M@TT or Henry Yorke to get hold of Chris as I'm not sure if he's on here.

As above, I can supply them as required.

Miles - They're made by the same engineering place, but the ones that I supply (and indeed the later 205Parts ones) are noticeably better quality/fit than the ones supplied in the initial batches.

Next time I see you Miles I'm happy to bring one down to you so you can see for yourself Smile

I ran one of the three 205 parts protypes anti roll / torsion bars in my 205 GTi6 some time ago.

Provided you know what you were doing and be careful, it fitted fine, i then removed it and sold it to a freind who fitted it and he still runs it to this day.

I now have another fitted to my 205 (its funny how your spec changes over the years) and that is fine. They had alot of problems originally with billy no mates smacking them on with damaged end plates and no real experience of building beams, but my understanding the quality is even better now than it was 4-5 years ago.

If Anthony can't sort you out, i have a huge stock of material i have been meaning to get machined at some point, its just i'm busy at the minute.

Chris Penrose is still registered on here Yes

But hasn't posted since 2009.

I bought a set of 22mm TB's off him & the quailty was second to none Cool
Top items & still doing me proud Big grin

Heres the link to his first post: Click Me!

This is the link to when I bought mine: Click Here!

Chris used to supply Peugeot Sport on occasions with their TB's, so it shows the sort of quality he's producing!

Try dropping him a PM & if you get no response then, do what Welsh Pug sugested above Wink

Hope that helps Smile

Thats always handy to know as A set I had when fully up and running along with another mate I know the splines where Horrific and could alomost turn by hand in the Trailing arm but my 306 ones where fine, I guess it depended who did them.

But Please note everyone this was a good 4 ish years ago now

The price & info is in my link from above ^^^^^^^, But that was in 2009.

Not sure if he's still making them & its fair to assume that the price will only increase not decrease, so your all looking at a minimum of £325 for the pair. (not each!)

Like I said before, for those that are interested, he's still registered on here, so try dropping him a PM, if you get no reply, then try WelshPugs idea listed above Wink

Hope that helps guys Smile

As said, if you don't get any luck I can supply them, but you're best off PM'ing me as I don't spend alot of time on this forum.

I'll need to double-check the price, but they should work out a fair bit cheaper than the price of the previous group buy. They're made to order in whatever size you require, usually with a 3-4 week lead time.

There's a handful of people on 205GTiDrivers that are happily running bars that I've supplied.
