Whiteline differential insert bushings review

Does we really got an real advantage running diff brace/bushing/mount finally?

I mean I have see the difference with the subframe bushing, yes ok fine, same thing with the transmission insert... But with the diff brace I just don't remember how the car was before... Maybe this is why am thinking it's useless after long term running this setup?

I have read my first post again and maybe I have a different opinion after long term use :S

The car definitely feels more planted to the ground with the rear bushings in. It's kinda hard to discribe but for me it felt like the car was quicker to accelerate off the line and after gear changes. Actually one of my favorite modifications yet.

The top transmission mount on the other hand is garbage!

Yes you are probably right...

Do you track your car often?

your rear end will tighten up like your gf/wife has a rejuvinated vajayjay!


ha jk.

no seriously. its that good.
the "thunk" you hear will eventually phase out. Dont let it bother you. It is always been there, its just that the soft bushings hides the noise transfer into the frame.

And you will get an instand "Go" from your wheels when you tap that gas pedal. And since you track a lil, you will get the most benefit.

best mod so far. car is really alive. enjoy my friend.

I have pretty much the whole setup different brands (listed below), I have a loud whine, loud clunk and major vibrations on de acceleration.

If I am in a high gear and let it de accelerate through the gear it is like going through a bass frequency test, rattles everywhere.

Parts I have:
Beatrush Rear Frame Stopper
Beatrush Rear Dif. Mount Stopper
Cusco Rear Differential Brace
Whiteline trans insert
Perrin Rear Shifter Bushing
STI engine mounts

Now the beatrush parts are pretty hardcore metal inserts and that maybe the reason for my heavy NVH, but whatever brand you have or material used I believe that the combination of the subframe inserts attaching the subframe to chassis and the diff inserts and brace firmly attaching the diff to the subframe almost making each separate component as one with the chassis there is no way to get around NVH, Unless changing one of the mods back to OEM to allow some dampening.

I have finally come to a point where I need to get rid of the beatrush parts and am looking towards whiteline.

Question is anyone with a similar setup as mine, but with the polyurethane subframe and diff bushings get mad vibrations de accelerating though 3rd-5th gear?

Replace these with polyurethane mounts and you should be good. What's good for a track car is usually not so nice for a street setup. Good thing you went with the group N engine mounts.

With my setup I have no whine or vibration. It took me a while to find a happy medium.

As of right now im running
TWM Short shifter
TWM rear stay
Twm Carrier bushings
Mtech springs
White Line transmission stay bushing
Whiteline rear subframe bushings front and back
Whiteline differential bushings rear only

So what would be the difference between Diff Cradle Mount and the Outrigger Insert(which seems to be covered in this review)

Whiteline differential insert bushings review

Diff cradle mount will replace the bushing completely. Outrigger insert like the title say, will be an insert to full the empty space into the OEM bushings.

Then if your OEM bushings are in good condition, probably, because the car is pretty new, then just go with the inserts...
