Just out of curiosity, how did you pipe up the return from the PWR intercooler and did it make a difference?

So i spent the day playing with the control arms, not literally lol.

Changed the rear bushes to Superpro, with the anti lift and the front of the control arm i installed Powerflex Black Series.

It was a total pain in the arse to do, i don't know how many of you have done it yourselves, i am so sore right now from being under the car for so long. Thanks to Gavin for lending me his extraction/install tool which made the job easier

Car is amazing to drive now, feels totally different, im very happy

Good stuff Troy, guessing it's stiffened it up a bit more? How's the vibration?

No vibration, I already had Whiteline control arm bushes in, yes it stiffens the front quite a bit, but its not a harsh feel

Turd job hey! I started mine in the driveway and then a 40 knot southerly complete with horizontal rain started. I was committed as I needed the car the next day so needless to say it was a freezing, drenched, miserable mechanical experience.
So can you feel a real world handling difference between the zero offset whitelines and the anti-lift setting you have now? What front LCA bushes were you running before when you had the whitelines in??
