The S3 1 has a full dia solid rubber bush too, where IIRC the GTI 1 has cut-outs in the bush

It's not the bush that makes the difference, it changes the geo of the wishbone.
Sideways yo!

I was aware of that , was just discussing the originals :smiley:, don't some people run the whiteline kit with the S3 item on the otherside of the wishbone? or did I dream that :laugh:

^^^^
That's right - Some (incl me) have upgraded the front bushes to poly to better balance and deal with the stresses which occur - Well that's the theory but I'm not such an expert to be able to back it up. People who haven't upgraded the front bush haven't had any problems yet AFAIK.

Methinks it's not essential but nonetheless a good idea while fitting the WALK. Replacing any bushes on a high-miler is a good idea.

Ahhhhh....

People have upgraded the front wishbone bush to poly, dunno about S3.

both me and robin have had this done now as I fooked a set of bushes up somehow so while they were being done at Vwr it was rude not to have other bushes done

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box
