bmcc 10 Posted September 7, 2011 was thinking of maybe lowering car a little bit more, but before done that was going to get new engine mounts done etc and if it would be beneficial to put on better bushes like powerflex ones or just leave be ---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ---------- was thinking of maybe lowering car a little bit more, but before done that was going to get new engine mounts done etc and if it would be beneficial to put on better bushes like powerflex ones or just leave be Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 7, 2011 Powerflex bushes in, my opinion, firm up the ride excessively without providing any noticable benefit. I'd personally stick with genuine VW bushes all round... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmcc 10 Posted September 7, 2011 ride is pretty firm as it is on coilovers so maybe improving the bushes would make it a lot worse im guessing then, seeing as im going to be driving car regularly its not that ideal to have it super stiff :) cheers Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex_G60_Fanatic 0 Posted September 7, 2011 i heard talk of pwer flex bushes not doing your wishbones any good... Apparently unless your into some serious speed or track racing OEM bushes with a R32 rear wishbone bush is the best set-up. As for mounts you need the oem rear mount, the gear box mount from a mk 2 Golf TDI and an OEM or Vibratechnics front mount. Never heard of AVO coilies before... but checking all your rubber bushes (including rear beam) is worth doing regardless of the drop on your car.

bmcc 10 Posted September 7, 2011 coilovers were on car when i bought it, i think i will hold of on the bushes until ive properly checked them all out, im just trying to spend some decent money on car and get it all as good as possible before attempting any serious mods to it. yeah that is the 3 mounts im now going to get after few people recommending it so far Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmcc 10 Posted September 8, 2011 yeah im going to go with setup ppl have recommended :) at end of day its best advice from people who know. thinking of getting the windows tinted as well but heard on front now its illegal? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
