    Poly Avant rear subframe bushes?

    Need to redo the subframe bushes on my RS2, and I know Supaflex do a poly set for the front, but what are fellow Avant owners doing on the back?

    I did do a quick search and noticed the group buy from Polyflex never happened so is it a case of stock mounts at the back and poly at the front, bit odd.

    cheers

      I was looking at doing sum Poly rear bushes, but didn,t bother due to the power-flex group buy, but i do have 1 set of solid rears in stock.
      CNC machined from billet Alum 6082 and hard black anodised for ultimate protection.

        The group buy doesn't seem to be progressing , have you had any thoughts about looking at doing polys again?

        Would prefer poly front and rear on my car.

          Poly ones would cost stupid money due to their size which is why the group buy failed, just buy the solid or buy the 034 uprared rear ones

            Yes just had a quick peek, they are a tad large!

              I'm just in process of fitting Super Pro poly bushes to my RS2 front subframe.

              These were supplied by Rob GT500.

              My rear subframe is due the same attention.

              PM Rob to enquire as to wether Super Pro do the rear bushes.


              I'm sure he said RS2 R/S/F and RS4 R/S/F are the same, and powerflex do bushes for RS4, so that might be the answer.

              STBC on this one

                S4 and RS4 do have the same identical subframe as the Avant I wasn't aware powerflex did them, I checked ages ago and they didn't hmmm one to check

                  Had the MD of super pro at the workshop today, RS2/RS4 are in development.

                  They will be a full set, all rear suspension bushes. Not track arm so far.

                      Well could use them fairly soon, so have gone for the solid option for now as it's not a daily (I had solid on my UR which didn't seem too bad compared to stock).

                        Solid in the Avant doesn't affect comfort they are a bit more noisy over bumps though, I have the bambridge ones in my avant
