ripped6 Donating Members 246 Member For: 13y 5m 11d Gender: Male Posted 02/06/12 05:08 AM Share Posted 02/06/12 05:08 AM (edited) Thanks Jet thought that might be it. Any idea how much a full bush set would be and should I go Ford or aftermarket?I know yours is a BA but just as a guide I was quoted 270 bucks for the 3 urethane bushes (from pedders) required for an FG, these bushes fit inside the standard ford bushes so you'll need to buy those as well. its a big job to fit them as they have to drop a lot of the arse end out so expect it to be at least 500 in labour. I had the upgraded (still standard) ford bushes put in last time and they lasted less than 5000kms before splitting. all my rear control arms were screwed as well. You have more power so expect similar or worse damage. mine get replaced under warranty on Monday so I'll let u know how noisy and rough the urethane ones are then... not that you'll have much choice in which ones you buy unless you want to replace them every service Edited 02/06/12 05:09 AM by ripped6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see they are giving Haydog09 lots of crap in the 400kw+ section looks like a hellava car that one.Its only taken 3 and a half months but the boys at HPT finally have my car going . Fuel tank in the wheel well is mint holds 80 - 90L, Ross modded the nizpro exhaust to fit over the new rear end and Scott put it all back together better than I would have expected. Bruces words " my dyno just doesnt like your f*cking car ". He has booked it in to THR Developements at wingfield next week in the hope they can keep it strapped down for a final tune.IF he does it early enough in the week I might get down to Heathcote on the weekend and hopefully shut a few of these interstaters up ;-).Hows the green machine going?

XRQTER1 Member 126 Member For: 13y 10m 6d Gender: Male Location: Adelaide Posted 02/06/12 08:42 AM Share Posted 02/06/12 08:42 AM 131mph is a fantastic effort and very encouraging good stuff. How tough are the tech inspections at the drags with ANDRA being involved? I hear they go as far as making u take boot mats out n stuff???Hence why I don't really wanna run here in Adelaide just in case cos firstly no cage and secondly if we go over 140mph which it shows it shows it will do no parachute lol...Heathcote on the other hand will let u run a blown big block in a wheel barrow hehe... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
