Dont want to sound stupid but anyway, im goin to order polybushes from rally design. They are listed as


Nova 1.3 SR / 1.6 GTE, Rear Beam 2PB030 £7.04 (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=5018) £7.74 (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=5067)
Nova 1.3 SR / 1.6 GTE, TCA2PB032 £5.97 (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=5019) £6.56 (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=5068)
Nova 1.3 SR / 1.6 GTE, Tie Rod (Front) 2PB031 £3.04 (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=5020) £3.35 (http://www.rallydesign.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=5069)

Im assuming tca is the lower arm to chassis bush, and tie rod is the bush that bolts up with the front panel and not for the anti rollbar.

Are they any good, which would be recommended for the road? Will probly just go for the polysport/poly classic. Just seem very cheap. I also thought gte/gsi had different size bushes to a 1.0/1.2 or sr etc?

Yep you are correct

I would say they are worth it, i noticed quite alot of difference when i swapped from standard rubber to polybushes:thumb:

I think the tiebars are the same accross the models mate, as the bushes go onto the threads at the end i've got a pic somewhere i'll find for you ;)

All the bushes are the same, its only the ARB ones that differ, i used Rally Design ones on mine (yellow ones), seemed fine.

Tie bars, IIRC, are 2 different diameters..20mm and 22mm. But i think the threaded ends are the same.

you'll probably have to give them a really good clean up when you strip yours down as years of rust of grime tend to build up lol
