Bush help

Recommended Posts

NO not that bush! <_<

Got a set of M-sport sway bars (26mm F/ 18mm R) for the car. We tried Nolathane(red ones) bushes but the fitment is not right and the metal clip is of a different design.

I can go OEM BMW but would like stiffer bushes. Any ideas?

OEM BMW is a 10day wait while they fly it out of Germany.

Would like to attack the road to Kawhia this weekend :D

Cheers.

Will the bushes fit the OEM clip? We had a lot of issues fitting the nolathane bushes to the OEM clip. :(

If it fits, yep, I'll have them :)

I think the fronts are about $60 and the rears are abotu $40.

$80 for both?

Cheers.

Finally got the sway bars done.

Had to swap the front bar as it was for a compact and it didn't fit so managed to get a 27mm front sway bar. :D

Bushes were sourced from P&H suspension city in Hamilton.

Probably the biggest handling mod I've ever done to the car. Better than the springs and shocks and wheel/tires. Less lean in front and I can get on the throttle earlier.

I recommend doing the sways first before upgrading the springs/shock if you are not running Motorsport sways for an E36. Definitely best bang for buck.

Sways were $200incl from Mosen and bushes were $93. Labour was about $130 or so and worth every penny. ;)
