Hi Suterman,

Did you order from the guys in your link above? Just wondering what the delivery times would be to the UK.

Thanks,
C

Don't bother with the rear kit as its not poly and to be honest you'll not feel that much difference especially for the labour expense you'll have to spend getting them fitted.

Just grab the front kit.

Looks like im gonna have to order from PFV as shipping from IPD was $82!!!

Still not sure what front bushes I need, I emailed PFV and got this back:

Quote:
The only thing you would need to do is decide which size front anti roll bar
bushes you need and if your car is non turbo then I think you need the 20mm
version. Otherwise all of those bushes are for your car, front and rear.

Regards
Clive
But surely i dont need ALL of them?

Hi,

A phone to IPD should help, they'll tell you which ones you'll need. I found them quite friendly and helpful when I spoke to them...

Steve.
