    Default [VT] Lowering and Replacing Bushes

    Hi all,

    My mechanic recently told me all the bushings in my 98 VT V6 are shagged (done 345,000km lol)

    So I'm think of lowering it now and replacing all the bushes with Nolathanes at the same time. I have been looking on the Nothalane website and they have two different kits, one for 'lowered to FE2 height' and one for 'lowered below FE2 height'. If I'm getting King Springs Super Lows and shorter shocks which category would this be?

    I have done a few searches and couldn't really find what I was after.

    Cheers
    Stu

    Check out SuperPro bushes as well, you can get them from Bursons, Supercheap etc. They are probably a bit cheaper and the same except blue. I have just about every bush replaced in my car with them and would recomend them. Never heard of any problems with them but have with Nolothane.

    @ F l a k

    Ok man I'll check the SuperPros out, if they sell them at Super Cheap that would be good cause I'm getting the springs and shocks from there thru a mate at staff prices, which is basically cost yewww.
    Do you know if they sell a kit for whole car or front and back sets? Or will I need to buy everything individually?
