Was in a car the other day with them and the nolathane rear and was quite ok noise wise. Just a little diff whine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, unnecessarily/too noisey for a daily. Lots of clunking and diff wine. Literally ZERO tramp though! If you've got surge pumps, an exhaust, horny turbo noise etc then you're less likely to notice (I.e. I went in Dan's old FG XR8 with the KB blown aluminator motor in it and that had them in and couldn't hear a thing from the diff over the blower and exhaust).

Relatively epic noise just cruising through the intersection, doesn't do things by halves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise from that thing was insane! I have this vivid memory of him stomping on it (on a private road) and the thing lighting up and fighting between gripping and slipping as it slingshot into high triple digits all the while he's sitting there calmly telling me to watch the tacho needle "watch it, watch it, watch" as the thing revved out to like 7k! Fastest car I've ever actually been in and think it was "only" running like 530rwkw at the time. Definitely doesn't do things by halves! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like it was crazy to ride in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they quiet and what front bushes did you use. Got to do my diff bushes but being quiet with no vibrations is No1 for me. And need to check how close my twin 3" manta exhaust will go to the hat mounts??? Anyone in Perth can take me for a drive or better yet let me thrash their car on a test drive. Mine is probably just as quiet as the standard bush setup. If not quieter.. I used Cat600 front bushes (pictured below) and replaced all of the others with Superpro bushes.

Ah it's not really that bad, I try not to beat up on it too much in all honesty. Try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
