Amjad Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Nice work dude!Good job on the LSD polybushes! In what way would they make a difference? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sanchez Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Nice mate, love the time, effort and MONEY lol that has gone into this, will be an awesome car!Love the blitz leads, where did you get them? i thought i had thick ones (8.8 splitfire) but yours is bigger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted September 18, 2010 Author Share Posted September 18, 2010 Simlar to trd uprated bushes, but made of polyurathane so little to no flex meaning no loss of power though engine movement, and they wont wearout like rubber mounts do. The lsd bush has never been developed and looking at the oem mout they take a lot of strain from the lsd so will be fantastic to finaly put a poly mount on there ;-)@ sanchez, found in japland mate, never seen em before for a starlet so had to have them. And bigger is better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
