Powerflex, super flex, o.e ?

[audinut]

Ok ive searched a few threads and im not going to ask which does what or what the ride is like .....

but i have 3 probably dumbass questions

1. on the subframe bushes ive seen a 10mm or 12 mm option anyone know what my
1993 aby avant will be?

2.best rear arb upgrade? the stock one is ridiculous (price and compatibility)

2. any one have any idea the best place too buy ?

at the moment im after rear subframe bushes,upper arm and lower arm bushes, rear arb bushes and i guess stock diff mounts

1) This refers to the bolt size.....have a look at the family album......or you could take one out to be sure

2) I use a Whiteline 18mm RARB on my coupe, which has 3 settings as to where you attach the linkage, seems to work well. Not sure that they are still available though

3) You could try Quattro Corner, Dialynx, AMD, VRS, AM Cars and lots of guys on this site!

.....sorry, forgot to say i was persuaded to go with solid sub-frame bushes in the end, with poly bushes elsewhere. The ride was not as compliant but boy does it sharpen up things....

[audinut]

yea could take one out , but i wanted to order some NOW and im being impatient

the white line seems a bit pricey I've seen an rs2 rear cheaper - not after all out super duper just an upgrade from the standard coat hanger

emailed quattro corner the other day but still waiting for a response

Little point fitting an RS2 rear rollbar. Better to fit the neuspeed bar as per link.

Excellent upgrade

yours will be the bigger one's being an aby, 3b's only got the smaller one's.

either rs2 or check s2avants build for his car. I might have a rs2 i'll check.

oh and go powerflex. Slightly cheaper for pretty much same item.

Think thats what ben has on his. I was trying to remember the name when doing my above post. I've heard good things about these.

Second hand uprated rear anti rollbars come up for sale on audisrs.

100% agree, Neuspeed is the best ARB upgrade for a B4q Avant, and easily available from Awesome.

oem bushes for me as a daily driver.

Only upgrade would be the good front engine snubber, done by a member on here.

Everyone's opinion differs.

As Error would say, depends on loads of variables, such as main use for the car, size of wheels, and tyres, oem seats or bucket seats, shocks & springs, top mounts, etc...

No help I know.

i have white line on my coupe its a big improvement over stock, also i think the rear subframe is 10mm bolts/bushes and front is 12mm bolts/bushes,
quattro corner for bolts £1 each if i remember

[bambridge]

I still have some Solid ally anodised sub frame bushes in stock

[vonbeck]

as for front go for rs2 arb if you can get one

[bilko0795]

Iv gone solid subs from bambridge and mine are 10mm rear on a 1995 coupe and powerflex all round with whiteline rarb and powerflex rear diff bush very happy and im 53yrs old with creaking bones lol.
