Question

Anybody fitted these to their Impreza ? I have a clunking noise on the front of my 95 WRX which is driving me up the wall. I thought it was the anti-roll bar links but it turned out not to be. When changing my oil earlier today I noted that the ARB bushes look a little worn (as in fresh air between bar & bush. Mmmmm now I think I've clocked the problem this time)

So I was thinking on getting Powerflex bushes and wondered if anyone has any experiences with these. Any tips on fitting & how your car feels with these fitted would be very helpful.

I like them A little firmer than OE and they make the car feel slightly tighter with very little increase in NVH!

Also good when coupled with rear solid ARB drop links

Change them and don't look back. Will make a big difference but will feel a bit harsher too. Turn the radio up or rev it a bit harder!
I changed ALL the bushes on my STi, but no regrets.
