hi
i have found a full set of genuine nolathane bushes for sale on the internet for about $50NZ (18pounds). is this a good price? also, they were bought for a S3 16V. will they fit on my S2 QV? do they make a big difference to handling? thanks in advance
Dave

sounds like very good value to me. If you do get them I'd love to know how you find the result as I've been thinking about this mod.

Hi Dave
Have you fitted the bushes yet? By the way I've come across a supplier of OEM Boge shocks at quite reasonable prices should you ever have the need. The name is Resto Spares in Palmerston North and I have an email address for them. Still interested in how you find the handling with the Nolathane bushes.
Regards Eddie |

I fitted polyurathane bushes to my 33, and the difference was amazing. But then again the old rubber ones were getting shot so I don't know if the improvement going to new rubber might not have been as great. The nolathane bushes are supposed to be harder, and stiffer, but I like the handling with urathane just fine.
Differences mainly in cornering, much less roll, and generally felt a lot... um, tighter (?)
