powerflex polly bushes

[whinger]

hi all

right i have got the ball rolling on pollybush making a set of bushes for fd3s , i have talked to tim darvill and he needs a rx 7 to put on the ramp for 30 min to an hour so they can decide which bushes they need to make for a kit.

also if anyone has any spare suspension arms that would be a big help too.

at the moment my car is off the road while i fix a few things for the mot and i dont really want to tow it 200 miles for them to inspect the bushes if another owner near to them can help.

if you ask for tim on

Tell you what, they can keep my car for as long as it takes to figure out what they need to do to replace all the bushes - only one condition - I keep the bushes!
Sounds like a good R&D opportunity for them and the benefits for me are obvious.

They are not too far away from me. Will be happy to go down there once my car is back on the road in the next couple of weeks or do they need someone now??

Funny that.  I had emailed them on Saturday to ask how much the kits where for the FD.  They said they dont have any prices but expect the kits in about 6 weeks.

Looks like you are the man!

I live just round the corner could be there in 5 minutes

Nice one, some of my rear bushes need replacing soon. Hopefully they can shed a load of money off what is asked for the current OEM bushes.

Keep us all posted of the outcome please mate. I need to replace my rear suspension bushes  :rolleyes:

Cheers

This sis just what I wanted to hear, I need some poly bushes for my FD, because I an\'t afford the OEM ones, not all of them anyway.  If someone lets use know when they are avaliable to buy, I will deffinatly want a set.

[Ricco_04]

Will be interesting to see how they affect the handling.  Recently found out on the other threads that the OEM one\'s are metal to metal and just have a weather seal! :confused:

Just wondering if there has been any progress on this.  I\'ve taken my car off the road this winter so if they wanted a car for a bit longer i could tow mine down for a week or so??  

I\'ve been looking for some replacement bushes for a few months but unless your willing to go down the route of re-mortgaging, to buy original Mazda spares there\'s not many options out there !!!

[Madden]

hello sorry i havn\'t contacted you in ages been on holiday.   I have some old rear bushes that they can have to messure up if they want.  Shell i just go down there or do i have to speak to someone there first.

Whinger can you give me the details and who to speak to

[Gman]

After finding out the price for the Mazda ones i am very interested in this also.

I was in contact with powerflex about a week ago and said they should have these kits rolling out around christmas! quite when that is....

I live about 30 minutes away.  Would only be to pleased to help if required
