    What do these whiteline products do?

    Hi all, I was just browsing the Whiteline website, and saw the following products for the Polo. Now since I have no idea about suspension set ups, I was hoping someone here can explain:

    1. What do these things do
    2. How do they do what they do
    3. Where do they go on the car
    4. How will they affect the car's driving characteristics
    5. Any other comments

    The products are:

    W0605 Bush kit-control arm rear
    http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_...t_number=W0605

    W0606 Bush kit-beam axle lateral lock
    http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_...t_number=W0606

    KCA310 Toe adj kit - shim type
    http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_..._number=KCA310

    Thanks for educating me.

    '07 CW Polo GTI
    'Roof::Leather::Tint
    GIAC::Whiteline RSB + FSB::Forge SB:ogbone
    Glossy B::Cubby::Honeycomb::Antenna

    The first one, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJaZ4yLCTeg
    Watch the video and you will understand.

    In fewer words, this part won’t let the geometry of the suspension change when you are cornering, braking and accelerating.

    The Toe-Kit will change the convergence of the rear wheels, it will help you to be much more aggressive when cornering. In fewer words it will help you lose the rear a little bit.
    Do slaloms are going to be much fun!

    The 606 probably will help in the rear alignment when cornering. This one is new for me.

    1st one is what JMac has been listing recently, although not Whiteline.

    I've got them as they were pretty cheap, just need to get them on!

    Cheers for that guys much appreciated. I'll be looking into it and see how much the sway bars are gonna cost me.

    Sorry noone, can't help it mate, my apologies. Got the modding bug again and just itching to get the rest of the stuff done so I can stop. Going to be getting the bumpers colour coded, 18" wheels and pirelli tyres on Monday (hopefully), and Bilstein?HR shocks/springs when they arrive. Recently just had an ipod cable, APR downpipe and dogbone mount installed in the last 2 weeks. I'm going nuts with it so far but definately need the wheels, tyres and suspension to reduce wheel spinning

    Dave dont go 18's! You're going to make the ride harsh as hell, its going to be rock hard.

    I was almost convinced to not to go to 17's the other day when I hit a bad pothole and the whole chassis gave a woefull shudder, was sure I'd broken something or popped the tyre... Was all good...
