Lighter than the standard version, through extra milling of the surface, it is otherwise virtually identical to the original. For the Xray NT1 their is a new adjustable rear anti-roll bar. Machined from aluminium, more flex is given through the addition of central slot, and of course the stiffness of the ARB is easily adjusted by rotation of the steel blades.
