Default SuperPro bushes

Has anybody used them?
How do they compare with Whiteline ?
Is there much difference between the blue and black ?
Do they sell a complete rear end kit ?
Where do i find the best price ?
I have noticed they are at Rallyday ,has anyone bought off their stand,do they give a good deal there ?

have always found AS Performance offer best deals and also 'price match' if needs be.........

in general terms the S/pro are slightly more refined from a road car point of view but the Whiteline offer better trackday / competition support.......

Funny you should say that i have also found their prices reasonable.
I wonder if they do a kit for the rear of a 04 WRX.

Yep I've used a mix of superpro and whiteline bushes, both very good. Would happily use Superpro again.

The Superpro paint/powder coating on their ARB's is FAR superior to the Whiteline stuff that rusts within weeks of fitting.

SuperPro bars are a lot more dosh too

WL have improved their paint finish ( a bit) and what I did is Hammerited mine before fitting (two or more THIN coats is best)

i spoke to Superpro at Rallyday they told me they do a kit for the rear end but dont sell direct to the public.
They pointed me in the direction of a fella who sells on their behalf who told me they dont sell black bushes ,he also advised powerflex sell them but not to fit them anyway. they would be way too harsh for fast road etc.

Yes, Dave massively under sold his pride and joy to a "friend" who conned him out of his money and car, who ended up breaking it for parts even though he said he wouldn't.

I don't know, he never said. But after he sold it he explained the buyer told him it wasn't worth much because it was a WRX so offered low and Dave sadly accepted without realising he was being conned out of his car, by the same person who built it for him, who most certainly knew exactly what it was worth.

The buyer is no longer on ScoobyNet. He used to be on here years back but after a major issue with another car and lots of negative press he left this site.
