Polyurethane Bushing Kits performance???

**nd55** · 03-03-2009 10:38 AM

Another point of view....

Up until recently, before Hardrace, poly bushes were the only option as Honda didn't sell just the bushes.

Hence the justification for poly bushes.

With Hardrace's hard rubber bushes now available, at an OK price, with no complaints of quality, I'd choose these.

My poly bushes haven't failed, but I can see visible oval-ing/deformation of the bush which defeats the purpose of new bushes to restore suspension performance.

Nick.

PS. Hardrace do a great spherical bearing, teflon lined & with seals.
Should be brilliant for performance or daily driven spirited driving.

Anyone in oz supplying hardrace?

**zel05** · 04-03-2009 03:55 PM

There is a guy in OZ that supplies Hardrace, but I dont think his range is very extensive...ie. camber kit here or there.

I have dealt with one particular guy in the states when buying my hardrace gear, and have had recommended a few more guys buy gear through him and they hhave had good dealings too. He is very knowledgeable and I would recommend him everytime. Pm if you wish to discuss.

how anyone used Nolathane before ?

how does it compare to superpro

**lookingforboost** · 15-05-2009 10:46 AM

^^ pretty sure they are the same brand another onwer that went out and made superpro and made it a different colour and bit cheaper but the same as the Nolathane.

i never had a problem with mine but they were every well greased up so i think that deffinatly has an effect on them as for OEM i know that oil and dirt kills them pretty quick!

I have bought the Energy Bushing master kit to replace all of my bushings but i have been told in the past that this bushing kit is missing the rear LCA's etc. Has anyone bought this kit? and what else doesnt it come with?
