That is a SUPERB vid - and clearly shows just how much the standard bush moves.  But it also sorta proves that Whiteline didn't think that uprating the fronts was necessary!  :wink:

This looks like an interesting mod - Does it help reduce the torque steer, that comes with a modded ED30, mine does have a hefty pull to the right in the lower gears???

....According to john_o in his original post: Yes.

However I would say that it reduces rather than eliminates understeer - Which is what I think he's reporting as well. If you really want to grasp the bull by its horns, then a Quaife ATB diff would be the most effective solution but it costs many times more money.

The new Golf R you have on order will, as you know, have VW's electronic diff. It feels much more remote and less satisfying to drive when pressing on but it is a great improvement.

Dispite what all the marketing bollox may state, I strongly doubt that it will have a genuine 'electronic' diff.  What it will actually be is just a conventional old skool open diff, but use the ESP to brake the inner wheel during acceleration during turns - just like on the current Mk5.5 Mk6 GTI - basically a two Euro tweak to the ESP software coding!  :indifferent:

hmm are you sure.. i think its the bushes closer to the rear which we need (number 2)

NOOOOO.  Number 2 are what the WALK replaces.  If you want to go for the additional (but 100% un-necessary) fronts, then you'll need powerflex number ones

cuprak1:
no worries cheers

its mainly for peice of mine and if im changing them all and getting the laser wheel alignment done its all good

Igor:
Just had mine fitted, along with some Eibach sportlines and ARB's, jeez what a difference, it no longer lifts when accelerating, and all trace of understeer has gone, it just goes where it's pointed, no dramas, just bags of grip, worth every penny  :grin: :grin: :grin:
