The bushes should be "stacked" as shown, but both should be Delrin.

The second choice runs counter to what Racer's Edge recommend and also Mike's observation, but if you're telling me they're stacked incorrectly I'd appreciate knowing that. Which one is best installed on top?


Thanks,
Got side tracked, sorry for leaving you hanging. Looks good now.

You and I must be polar opposites, I have projects I've been planning and researching for years.

Scott, I wouldn't say that. You seem to research stuff for yourself and do a good job of putting things together. However, I am almost certain that any mod possible on these cars has already been performed by someone on this forum. It might save you some time, money and heartache if, after you've done your own research, you run your ideas by the members on here before you go ahead and buy stuff. Just a thought

Maybe not, I've also been researching for a long time. This project started when I bought the S2 in 2014 from a guy in Sarasota FL. Details like this one only become apparent when you're actually doing them in my experience.

In the end, with some considered advice over a couple of days, it worked out I think?

But then I wouldn't have pictures?

(he writes in the throws of a pure protein high after eating maguro, hamachi, unagi and ama ebi sushi at Edo Tai in Boulder Creek a few minutes ago...)

We won't even mention driving home along Hwy 9 in a 1.8L Audi A4 Turbo. Some things are just better left unsaid.
