Here it is :)

H&R 22mm rear ARB and Powerflex bushes

On the car :)

(I will install the bushes later on, as I wasn't on the mood for that:shrug: ).

First impression. Less to none body roll and no understeer, resulting in an impressive improvement on the handling of the car matching perfectly the front 20mm H&R ARB.

Few kms done do far, so this is just the first impression.

I like this "new" car :)

Cheers

1. From H&R dealer (www.autoforum.pt).

2. Don't know the price yet.

(You should get one as the handling is massive improved).

Cheers.

Hi,

Contact the UK H&R dealer and ask for the rear arb from ADAC VW Polo Cup. It doesn't have a part number as it is a competition part and usualy available only for competition, as informed me.

By the way, there is also a 22mm front ARB with two adjustment points.

Cheers

You wont be getting one, spoke to H&R today and they are a special one off part for the Cup Polo's, they did have some left over and were selling them, but there are none left and they wont be making any more.

Jabba only now, only need 2 more folk for the Briskoda group buy. . . .

Does anyone have a list of all the Bushes I should upgrade and Part Numbers for the Cupra and PowerFlex Bushes?

I'm guessing there are several Bushes on the back that could be upgraded aswell.

Also anyone know a good source to buy PowerFlex bushes for the Ibiza from?

There are lots of mentions in here about coilovers and ajustability, it would be good to have some feedback on non ajustable kits. What is a good route to go for a straight forward lower / uprating kit with no ajustability? Ride height to lower no more than 25 - 35mm..

I'm thinking Koni FSD's & Eibach spring combination, Eibach pro damper / spring kit or possibly the Sachs Sports shocks Eibach spring combination. However there is some poor feedback over on Briskoda regarding the Sachs Sport Shocks.... Anyone got just a non-ajustable kit fitted? Any comments if the ride quality is better than standard and how they've lasted?

I currently have a Koni Sport kit (with adjustable dampers) and want to change the springs to some Eibach ones to get a more consistent ride and better handling, i'll let you know how it goes. The dampers are great though :)

New Upgrade:) .

Powerflex PFF85-201 (front wishbone front bush).
Seat Cupra (front wishbone rear bush).

Better turn-in, better and much more precise handling.

In conclusion, totally approved:funk: .

I think the FR and Cupra use the same front wishbone rear bush.

Mine past away, jeje. Just bought the complete front powerflex bushes.

By the way do you know if the polo rear bushes can be used in Ibiza Cars?

Regards!

PFR85-415 still laying on the garage.

Because its and insert to the original. If the original its worn out, you have to buy a new one to use the new Powerflex bushes.
Its easier, stronger and cheaper to buy a Cupra one.
