lol explains why the ZS seems an improvement to you then

both in standard form i hear the zs has better handling, but if your Si was lowered id have said they'd be more on par
but the Zs has more grunt too so you havent done bad to upgrade

(theyr'e not better looking though )

the car feels alot more solid if you know what i mean. and i mean more solid than my grey one not the si as that was falling apart at the seams lol

and im not sure about the si looking better i think they are on par tbh. from some angles the si looks better and other the zs does.

on another note i think i need some new rear beam bushes.

Polybush it

i am very tempted to chris, not looking forward to getting the old ones out though

Yeah I dunno which ones it is but i've heard setting them on fire is the pikey way.

Really stiffens it all up polying everything, its something i've wanted to do for a while but I just know i'd never get round to getting someone to fit them for me.

nope im not setting them on fire it makes the job harder in the end as you have to remove the rear beam completely from the car to be safe where as you just press them out you can do it by letting it off the mountings and supporting it with blocks or a jack. either way hopfully i will be doing it at work.

As long as you've got the right tools to do it then will be fine I bet. I've never done it i've just heard thats how some people do it. i'd assume they take the bits off first ha.

mines fully pulied, but im put off now, been over a year but its so stiff!

heres a good way of doing it

(not mine btw)

right i have decided that the rear bushes are totally screwed as i can rock the back of the back of the car side to side while the wheels still stay still. best way of describing it is that if i grab the top of the back wheel and shake it the body wobbles from side to side but the wheels stay still.

must say somthing for how bad my si was as this feels much more stable even like this.

Deffo fit polybushes mate, and they arnt that hard to press out, done it twice myself before now

_________________

where sells them at a decent price then? is it any different to fitting normal bushes?

When fitting them to the rear beam, its actually easier than standard ones as polybushes only have one lip rather than two so just push straight in with the grease they supply

Floflex are cheaper, or proflex, and powerflex are the most expensive and best quality
