Powerflex bushes - make a big difference?

Just fitted KW variant 3s & about to fit some h&r anti roll bars to finish the set up - wondered if it's worth getting a full set of powerfelx bushes? Do they make a big difference - are they good for the road or too stiff? Desired result is to have the best fast road set up with some track use. Tha...

Re: What's the best front brake set up?

Nice - best I've seen em for is £620

Where did you source yours?

Also why had you gone for yellowstuff over redstuff?

What's the best front brake set up?

Need to replace my front discs this month..

Been seeing alot of people speak about AP discs - are they better than the OEM brembo ones?

Also - any advice about EBC red stuff pads - how much better are they then standard / are they good? Or to be avoided?

Thanks

Re: Bilstein B16 vs. KW Variant 3

Thanks for the advice above!

I Went for the Goodyear's in the end..... About to get a set of 10mm spacers for the rear then will fit the KW's.

What's the best set up for the coilovers in your opinions? (Both damping / height and also wheel alignment if possible?)

Re: Bilstein B16 vs. KW Variant 3

Yeah the 4S's are certainly tempting - they are coming in at nearly £1k fitted though - where as the other two are around the £700 mark...... Does the benefits warrant the cost difference is what I'm thinking

Re: Bilstein B16 vs. KW Variant 3

I just bought the KW's

Will report my finding once fitted - before I do I need new tyres

Thinking the asymmetric 3's or the pilot sport 4 - any recommendations?

Bilstein B16 vs. KW Variant 3

Just about to buy a coilovers set as my standard suspension has given up on my B7 RS4. I heard the bilsteins are more easily adjustable but also heard thier ride was way too harsh for the road. KW were highly recommend but then heard the build quality was lower in recent years and you have to disman...
