Suspension Recommendations

[GOT8SPD]

Hi all...

So i'm looking at replacing my RTAB because my rear toe is all messed up and it's killing the tires, but after doing some research, it seems like i'll have to take out the whole rear end to do it, so i'm looking at replacing the diff mount bushing as well.

So i'm looking into purchasing the AKG Rear Subframe and Diff Mount Bushing set...Poly 75D, but it says FOR RACE USE ONLY. What's with that? My car is a daily driver, but i definitely don't mind having a stiff suspension if that's what the difference in poly does.

Also was going to get the RTAB 75D in poly as well.

What do you guys think? Should i get the Acentric RTAB?

It isn't necessary to drop the subframe just to replace the rear trailing arm bushings. But if the trailing arm bushings are bad it is very likely that the subframe bushings are also, which means dropping the subframe.

Poly bushings will stiffen up the suspension, but along with that comes an increase in noise, vibration, and harshness. Hence the warning.

You can get camber/toe adjusters for the rear.

But i read that they have to be welded on and are more expensive? Seems like a lot of people do without camber/toe adjusters

akg have a street version as well which is slightly softer(only slightly, you still wont be floating on clouds... ;) ), get the akg RTAB's and the e30tech subframe kit.(http://www.e30tech.com/forum/showthread.php?t=80410) thats what i put in my car. Alignment shop was able to get my toe/camber perfect in the rear end with that setup, and the ride height in my sig.


one pair of trailing bushings didnt make it in the picture...
