I had the poweflex bushes fitted to mine and tbh the car just dont feel the same, its twitchy now, it dont feel as planted as it was on OEM bushes, im thinking of going back to stock with all new arms over the winter.

 

Thats what i would have expected with an aggressive driving style Jamie. There isn't as much play in them so while thats great for roll during cornering it means when you put the foot down there isn't as much absorbtion leaving it more likely to break traction.

You would think so, i cant tell the difference in the ride though, maybe something is wrong under there or the geo setup was done wrong, ill get it checked out before i do anything.

It does feel tight and as i said in this thread i cant feel any difference in ride.

 

Its just twitchy aswell, contray to my videos i didnt get on well with the handling at Llandow.

 

Does that tie up with your recent geo change Jamie? Is the geometry even slighly different now compared to before the poly bushes?

 

Yes im on different settings, ill change back and see what its like.

They worked at very well, one of the best things i did to my older car.
