    Apex Performance vs Driftworks

    I need to order some parts which both companies sell.

    Just wondering if one is better than the other.

    I'm after rear lower arm poly bushes, gearbox mount, steering rack bush and lower arm poly bushes.

    Thanks!

    Much of a muchness imo, I went with Energy Suspension steering rack bushes and Super Pro low arm bushes, heard good things about both and they were cheaper than Apex/Driftworks even though they came from the US. Also bought a bunch of other things at the same time which made the shipping more cost effective though

    Both are good at what they do and support the scene/sport.

    I always go with apex. Mainly through loyalty as they were very helpful to me in the past.

    I tell you now, Driftworks bushes are wobbly garbage.

    Another one here for energy suspension

    My whole car is bushed with them, much better quality than UK sold bushes

    Iv done the whole back end of my 14 with powerflex, top quality but not cheap.

    Iv a few small driftworks parts fitted, brake lines, steering bush and one or two others and found them perfectly fine, good service from them too anytime I ring them for info.

    Can't comment on apex

    After fitting driftworks bushes to the rear arms of my 14, i quickly swapped over to the energy suspension ones i had spare. the driftworks ones were pretty crap from the start, the energy suspension ones were a much better fit and much better quality imo. Also came with some grease which was handy for fitting too
