Hey guys,

has anybody made the master bushing kit upgrade from Figs?

If yes, how would you describe the driving/steering feeling after? On a scale from 1 (very same) to 10 (twice as good), how big was the improvement over the stock ride?

Thanks!

The upgraded rear sway bar is the best mod for handling.

Edit: I should mention without upgrading the suspension. The harder the bushing the more feedback you get from road imperfections.

Lots of stiff ride comments on the complete figs bushing installation unless you are track racing the car.

if you change both sway bars and install coil overs and still want stiffer then the figs are one of the last options.

i did the front stock bar and it helped a little on body roll

The rear 17 MM ISF bar and new SC430 stock high quality SB links and SC 430 SB bushings provide a massive, cost effective upgrade in neutral handling and ride comfort on the road. There is no reason to go to poly bushings unless you track the car (only.)

All other things being equal, upgrading rear SB, in RWD cars, to lessen understeer, has traditionally been the first step to improve handling without compromising ride comfort.
