How much of a difference does it make in the driving experience

Makes a hell of a difference to how well planted the rear end of the car feels - I've got these fitted to mine. Makes it a lot easier to kick the back end out too ;)

The only downside I can detect is that you can feel drivetrain slack being taken up through the whole car with a *THUNK* as you start to bring the clutch out.

been a long time since I started this thread....got the rearend and a few other things sorted...car is really really planted now..the ride isnt any harsher and I get no drivetrain thunk... the car handles like its on a razor's edge

You've got me tempted now... The memory of the first subframe bush job is the only thing that's holding me back! :p

it wasnt that bad...the old ones were drilled/air chiseled/blow torched off the car then the new ones just pop in because theyre two piece...slip one in on the top then pop one in from the bottom done..........
easy peasy

really theyre amazing zero downsides to them
and the coilovers i just ordered will also help get the car to handle even better
