Hi,

Try //www.superflex.co.uk - They list kits and various poly bushes for FB, FC and FD RX7\'s.

Based in Somerset, so the pound sliding towards the Zimbabwean dollar isn\'t such an issue..

I\'ve used them on the race car for some years.

Cheers

I\'ve used these on the daily and been very happy. Alot cheaper than the supflex kit !

Just done a quick check - carriage, duty, vat and exchange rate doesn\'t seem a lot/if any cheaper if you buy like for like components? Am I missing something?

Good point. I got mine when the exchange rate was better but isn\'t the full superflex set over £200 ?? Some time since I got mine !

Hi,

Guess it depends on definition of "full set" as the mrcmfg set is missing various bushes. I\'m hazy on the last set I bought but am sure they weren\'t that dear.

IIRC I bought a spare set of Watts Link from Mazdatrix while I was there - didn\'t think they were any cheaper either.

thanx guy\'s for the info, looked at both and i\'ll probably go with the superflex because of the exchange rate on the dollar.
stacy do you know if superflex offer a full set of the bush\'s as i didn\'t see it on the site?

I did indeed.  Copied from ex i le:

" I\'ve gone through the superflex stuff, and to get all the bushes for the car would cost £290...



... Then I saw on their website that they come from an Aussie Super Pro kinda background, so had a look at their site. The part numbers are even the same. And then I looked for their UK distributer. And so I called him and asked for a quote for teh same part numbers. £195 inc vat - but because I\'m getting a large number, they will cover the VAT and carriage is free!! £166 for the complete kit!!

//www.superpropoly.com
Number is 01823 690 281 for the bits - guy is very helpful, and called back with a quote within the hour."
