so i got the perrin PSRS in the lgt... (wru pauls pictures)

big difference in cornering ability especially considdering i had allready ripped the rubber stock ones. mushy stearing around tight corners (tested on the madison to Wbound 80 ramp) is amazingly tight, and smooth as the inside of a virgin. the car feel great through corners and it realy bites into them when you go hard.





but, and its a big but... like Jlo size....









it really is a racing part. driving through citrus heights and fair oaks last night made me want to kill myself. sub 35mph you feel everything, and i mean everything. which isnt bad in and of itself, accept for the fact that the car is a subaru so those 1,000,000 little tiny rattles that normally happened randomly, are now in chorus.

at higher speed its fine even on rougher pavement, but at neighborhood speed it sounds like theres a bunch of tin cans filled with rice grain in the back seat.

definately not a wifey's car upgrade. if they were made of a material like polyurathane that has some vibration and shock dampening it would be a much better all around upgrade. ill deal with it cause 1.) im pretty much deaf anyway and 2.) after bouncing down the freeway id rather know im in control of the car than feel like im slidding on pudding.


paul needs to post the pics, the stock bushing is... well... it looks like chewing gum and is soft enough to be manipulated by hand.


oh and if anyone gets these for lgt... get your alignment done right away. my **** was waaaaay off.

The ALK isn't as bad, it's a poly mount. The Perrin is a full SB.

I'd love to know how you'd do the ALK AND the PSRS, given that they're the same part
