[Ben]

How much is a good price?

What make is the best to aim for?

Are they worth the money?

Venom Motorsports
powerflex
front kit = ?55
rear kit = ?35

this doesnt come with the ARB bushes but you dont wanna be fitting that anywyas!!

they also do the whole lot with ARB bushes for ?99

[Ben]

yeah the ARB will be removed but will still be using the Tie bars, they use the same bushes?

[Dicko]

no those are part of the 'front' kit

they do the kit without the ARB bushes as some novas didnt have an ARB, but all have tie bars..

[benji]

i got a set of poly sport bushes from rally design for ?40, with no anti roll bar bushes

[Mark]

Yes the ones from www.raldes.co.uk do seem to very good on price

[novashed]

i got powerflex for free :lol: , mix up with orders for a mates car, made a big difference, car seemed to brake a lot better, stiffer front end, havent got round to fitting the rears yet 1 year later :?

demon tweeks don't know how much they cost though i think it's in motorsport catalogue

[Mark]

Oh yes, be an autonomous drone, go to demon-tweeks, pay their extortionate prices :!:

[m.d.]

got the whole kit for 99 quid from an ad in total vaux. make the car feel well tight.

why do you all say remove the ARB does it make it handle better or something.

i snapped one once and the car leaned like a twat till i got a new one

[Mark]

This might explain things a bit easier for you about ARB's

why bother?

Was discussing this with aragorn the other week - the standard poly bushes are fine for what most of us use their cars for. Poly's are only really effective for "hard" use - I need new ones but am considering whether its worth it - I mean the ones that are on my car now were fitted over 12 yrs ago and have lasted as long - I reckon another set of oem ones will be good for another 5 yrs+ even with lowered suspension.

At the endof the day for the money difference is it worth it for the !average novaloader and how much difference do you really feel - bearing in mind that to get full potential from them you need to ensure your strut top mounts are new or uprated, springs/damerss and other suspension parts are in v good to excellent condition?

I will be fitting a complete new set when car will be done, have got different tie bars and various other parts to get powdercoated.

Im the kind of person that if it can be improved or uprated i will do it.

Ade,
A few of the companies who make poly bushes, offer them in different "grades", so you could get some softer compound ones, which would be an improvement over the OE ones, without giving a harsh ride.

Juats an idea :)
