Nevertheless, I have installed whiteline control blade bushes in a BF XR6 and they are quite reasonable. I'm actually tempted to use superpro next time just to compare.

I'm actually tempted to use superpro next time just to compare.So I thought I would attempt to back up the information given to me by a nolatane sales rep with some info from the Whiteline Tech dept, turns out I need to retract my previous statement (below from Whiteline)"We own Whiteline & Nolathane brands, the two are the same design although colour differs."So now I am stuck when it comes to choosing diff bushes SP are a known quantity but do have issues at higher hp levels (unless going to soilds) So I either take a gamble and go for whiteline/nolathane or get Toads to pull his finger out and let me install his independant motorsport dual bush setup so I can see what the NVH increase is like with it.

I should be able to provide some feedback in a few weeks time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SipposBFT Member 81 Member For: 15y 2m 27d Posted 23/02/15 09:49 AM Author Share Posted 23/02/15 09:49 AM Im with you on the superpro ralf... had changed them in my last skyline..was a vast improvement on the pedders (red ranger) generics...man theyre nasty... ive actually got the red rangers in my front lower control arms...think its time to change them to superpro. I only went to Witeline with the control blades as it was a straight replacement arm....no pressing involved. Do Superpro do a replacement arm??
