vtec2011 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Cheers lads! ^^ Still nothing from the insurance company about the inspection, I hope they forgot about it I was working on a MB2 today (full service, disc & pads) and took it out for a test drive. Comparing it to my MB3, the MB2 felt so much better to drive! The MB3 is a lot faster but the MB2 felt more solid? Tighter turns, no roll going around corners and more precise steering. The MB2 is 100% standard and done 10'000 miles less than mine. It feels horrible driving my car now because somethings defiantly wrong. My car now feels like a boat compared to the MB2! I am a bit gutted to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtec2011 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 I always wanted to upgrade to powerflex ARB bushes, replace the top mounts and trailing arm bushes. But the money is never there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vtec2011 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Needs lows!!You might have a drop link or something else worn out dude? There is no play on the drop links, seems all tight. Might replace them anyway as they don't cost much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB3Matt Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Is there a difference in suspension between normal models, and the Sport versions, as mines pretty handy round bends, but mine is an MB3 also, just the sport version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamestopdog Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 How annoying mate driving that mb2. Sometimes cars just go like that, but yeah overhaul the suspension when some funds available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a bit gutted to be honest When I bought my MB3 the rear trailing arm bushes were shot. It made the whole car feel soft and unresponsive, but once I got it fixed it was really tight. Might be what's up with yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I think sometimes depends what sort of life the cars had. My mates not long bought a 2001 bug eye subaru with crazy miles. Yet it probably the tightest subaru I have ever driven! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
