Powerflex bushes full kit??

Post by AMQR »

Hi all, I was thinking of getting a full set of powerflex bushes for my sport. I was just wondering has anyone else here fitted them and do they make much of a difference and are there are downside, noise, comfort etc.

Thanks Ashley

A few of the reasons I was think of getting them is the roads are quite bad around my area at the minute and in the whole of NI for that matter ( often wounder what the hell their doing with my £185 and everyone elses tax :rant: )

But there is some bump steer and some road noise (even with x4 new Dunlop SP Sport Fast Respone tyres on the sport rims) so hopefully the poly bushes will help with something

I'll give them a go any how.

yea, they sure the car up. you will feel those bumps tho! Does stiffen the ride, but does stiffen the car too, and makes it far more poised. I haven't got front ones, just in the rear beam, but they do make a difference! :)

maybe its just me with the ibiza then i cnt tell the diffrence,
mind you the standad ones on the ibiza are pretty hard ones, just made out of that cheap plastic you find in biscut tins and wear out pretty quickly lol
