Poly bushes make the ride crashy?
I too have squeeming from my v6s can be pretty hairy lol

I thought they were supposed to be hard as fook :|

Or should i just put new vaux ones on?
Car has done only 43k

Thanks for the advice.

But are the rally Design ones, good for sometthing?
Any experiences out there?
And with 80K should I change the bushes?

i get this when braking heavy car kinda moves side to side...

So boys, KrisTD and Brooster,

What about the ride quality of the polybushes, are they hard when compared with the original Vaux ones?
My car has done 80K sould I replace the bushes? Because rally design ones are cheap, are they any good? Will steering become more precise?

Thanks

which you would probably notice from putting new standard ones on too.

By all means upgrade the antiroll bars!
I've used Eibach ones, and I have much less bodyroll and a neutral handling. whitelines should give the same advantages.
I was also thinking in trying one one their suspension kits, or springs, because I've got Eibach springs with koni sport and the ride is harder than a rock:(
Next upgrade: Polybushes for the front antiroll bar and camber kit for the rear

not bad price, about 75 quid each plus p & p arent they?
i put 1.6 sport antirole bars on mine cos it had a tiny rear one and no front one, made a bit of difference to body role but nothing to write home about.

Has anyone used the whiteline front and rear anti-roll bars from demon tweeks?
Any good? Worth the money? Any problems with tracking/camber etc?
