Hey everyone,
its been a while since i've been on here. I'm still in the process of doing a 1.8T conversion to my MK2. At the moment i've removed the rear axle, sub frames etc and going to send them off to be shot blasted and powder coated. I'm just looking for some advice as to which bushes I should use when I come to rebuild everything. I've noticed that Super Pro bushes are becoming quite popular and are being advertised in PVW quite often; has anyone on here had any experience with these bushes; if so, what are they like quality and performance wise compared to Powerflex? Super Pro seem to cost quite a lot less than Powerflex for the full kit. I'd just like to hear some opinions as to which are best before I go and order them.
Any advice would be really appreciated.
Cheers
Oliver |

There are two schools of thought on this subject.......
I personally dont mind either set of bushes.
When you come to do the front wishbones dont do the front one as it makes the car very hard, unless of course you want it that way.
you normally end up replacing them early or swapping them out as they're too hard.
This is one of the rare occasions when the original is actually better than uprated. _________________
