Want to purchase a complete new set of bushes for my E30, but I want to upgrade them to polyutherane, Powerflex or similar.

Does anyone know where I should buy them from?


Am I right in thinking the ones in the link below ARE NOT front and rear subframe bushes?

Any advice would be great!

Thanks

Or give XL Raceparts a crack, we're official Powerflex dealers and I give discount if you ask nicely! :D

Bloody hell they are Ka Ching at retail, we get them at a massively discounted price through our race series then.

Didn't realise how good we got it :)

Has anyone else had problems with the Powerflex trailing arm bushes?

I've heard of several cases, including my own. (Compact with E30 rear end.)

All the other bushes are fine, but the trailing arm bushes fell apart, after very little road use only.

See here.

Send them back to Powerflex, never had any problems with ours and i'm sure they'd do something.
