Nurburgring 2019 prep poly bushes
Hi all

After my manual conversion I decided to poly bush all the rear suspension they are from Strongflex and great quality. I wanted to do this years ago
but never found a company making poly bushes for our cars

Starting to look like a DTM from back then

Just interested to know, how much does your C43/55 weigh today?

Wow, that will certainly improve things dramatically. Have you an idea what specs you are going to tune in, as there is little data available to work around?
