Gonna be overhauling my suspension soon with the following bits:

HSD HR Coilovers 8/6kg spring rates
Driftworks Rose Jointed Front Tension Arms
Driftworks Rose Jointed Rear Camber Arms
Driftworks Rose Jointed Rear Toe Arms
Driftworks Rose Jointed Rear Traction Arms
Driftworks Front Lower Bushes
Driftworks Rear Lower Arm Bushes
Driftworks Rear Upright Bushes
Tein Tie Arms + Ends
Apex Steering Rack Bushes

Should I use alloy subframe bushes or just use locking collars?
Would it be worth locking the diff?

Locking collars for sure if you're gonna drive on the street. I've got mine and they're deffo stiffen but no nasty mega vibrations etc :)


I believe you'll need a new spine if you want to fit solid subframe bushes and use the car OTR lol :wack:

Yeah was thinking that they might just be too harsh lol

Was thinking of putting solid diff bushes on, shouldn't be too bad as the S13s have solid diff bushes from the factory. This with locking collars should be okay since the standard bushes are there to absorb any harshness the diff may give off.
