Up rated Suspension Bushes, worth it?

[thecorporatemachine]

Is it worth splashing out and getting a full set of powerflex bushes?

What sort of handling gains can be seen? do they just "tighten" everything up a bit?


thanks for the help

Whats the use of the car?
Track/competition? Yes 100%
Road? Maybe think twice

If they haven't been changed for awhile - new standard ones make a big difference.

its a little bit like a K&N filter. they last longer than standard items do and do make a little bit of difference but people like, my mum, probably couldn't tell any difference.
my saxo has got nylon bushes and they feel good, though not that much better than standard really.
i once got fairly familiar with an old cosworth that was running its original bushes everywhere as far as i could tell then completely polybushed it and the difference was amazing! it was noticeable just driving it off the curb, it was so much less... 'floppy' lol

ive done all the suspension short of bushes now so just need to make my mind up
