I was hoping you can help me! I'm TIRED of finding NOTHING...Your knowledge would be much appreciated!

 

I've been searching for hours for performance parts for my car and coming up empty handed on websites

I have a:

1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme SL

I currently have:

-Monte Carlo front lowering springs

-Flex-a-form rear leaf

-Rear Sway Bar

-Granitelli MAF Sensor

 

I would really like to find a polyurethane bushing for the car and the Dogbone and anything else that would help with performance.

 

Thank you

Ryan

Either you dont really have a Granitelli MAF or your car is a 96-97.

 

And you obvously suck at searching :lol:

Dont bother wanting to put ES bushings in your stock lateral links in the rear, they are crap and weak. At the bare minimum upgrade to Gen 2 lateral links, melt out the stock bushings, measure, and order ES bushings that fit those dimensions. But, since the Gen 2 lateral links are a tab longer, you prolly wont be able to use your rear leafspring.

 

Go coilovers.

He must have the LQ1 if he has a MAF..

 

And its a damn shame he spent money on it to get no benifits. Our stock MAFs outflow every part of our engine. It would take around 600hp IIRC to max out the MAF

 

 

And theres not much aftermarket performance. Gonna have to do custom of DIY is you want a whole lot out of the car.

I find it hard to believe... he has an OBD1.5 car, if there were any advantage to having an aftermarket MAF on our cars it would all be in the computer, and the OBD 1.5 computers can not be tuned...

 

You got hosed on that!

 

Take your dog bone off, cut out the rubber bushings, take it to a machine shop and have them drill it out. Then buy E.S. Poly bushings for a 1988 Fiero Torque strut. It cost me $35, but I have access to a radial arm drill press that can accept that size drill bit. I can't remember what size it was... nearly 2" I think.
