Good to see my old 2871 tearing it up

And credit to g88 for quick install and tune with insight

Not to mention an awesome install.

[owen]

On the way back from Sydney I accidentally dropped my jerry can onto my rear guard and left a dent the size of a 50c coin. Using this as a chance to get all my dents removed, which is happening today
Hopefully I can get my front bar resprayed some time in the coming months and get hamish to work his magic.

Where are you going for dent removal?

Where are you going for dent removal?

Tankards, next door to my work place. I've done them a few favours so I'm getting them done for free

[owen]

Every single rubber bush under the car being replaced with polyurethane

Retails for almost 1k. pm for details pricing if you are serious and have monies ready

Your Lib felt great before, are you expecting any major difference?

It actually feels quite terrible atm. It's just that the power and torque makes you forget how loose the car feels. So I am hoping that it will make a major difference

[bigBADbenny]

Ur on another level Owen

[shav]

I reckon you'll notice quite a difference going urethane bushes all round Owen. Just make sure you grease every single one of them extensively or you will get the dreaded squeaks when going around corners. The car will just feel tighter all round.

Haha you must think everyone else's cars drive like boats

Not really. I really like the way Justin, Bruce and Brandon's car feels. Even Brandon's car which has 0 grip feels tighter than mine. I guess that's the difference between a car that's done 40,000kms vs 140,000kms.

The steering is responsive..but not sharp like my evo or even my golf. Doesn't feel planted, wiggles around under braking and under power. I'm constantly fighting the car because it just feels loose and I can't put my foot down early enough purely because I'm afraid to.

If these ball joints and bushes don't make an improvement I will have no choice but to turn it into a drag car lol

My car does have lots less km than yours and My car has a few bushes changes along with other suspection mods

My cars name is not Alison but its a fucking slut though
