poly/solid mount bushes

quick one here lads, is there anywhere in ireland that stocks polybushes or solid aluminium bushes for s bodies?
specifically rear subframe bushes and diff mount bushes.
i know driftworks have em but would rather buy em here if i could.

jus get them off driftworks lad i bought my subframe bushins off them think i was only waitin 2 or 3 days for them

did you go for the poly ones or the solid mount ones?
my next question after that is, do you fit those slotted locking collars on with the bushes or what?

**way2fastforu** · 13-01-10, 10:16

i got the poly bushes lad....no them lockin collar jobbies are only for ur standard bushins not poly bushes or solid ones

cheers for that. i was woundering why i had only seen pics of them with standard mounts..

**way2fastforu** · 13-01-10, 10:22

no prob man...ya they jus for standard bushins they fit in the grooves of them an wen ya tighten the bolts back up the compress the bushin a bit makin it feel tighter which makes it handle a bit better....is it road car or track car u want them for??

well its for a road car, rb25 s14, i'm hoping to have it out on track,
the main reason for buying it, but it'll be on the road aswell as a weekend toy etc.
standard bushings are in need of changing as i'd say they are the original ones.
thinking the solid mounts would be too harsh off track and oem ones are too soft.

solid mounts would be awful harsh for our roads id go for the poly bushes...iv only drivin my car few times since i put mine in cos its off the road wile i do some work but they seem to be very good from wat iv gathered wile drivin it

it needs something anyway as the back end seems very soft when trying to hang it out or even just at speeds on the motorway.
only had it out last night for the first time on a proper drive and it was really obvious.
although its not got coilovers yet either.

coilovers an poly bushes for subframe would really tighten it up an help hold it out a bit wile driftin
