poly suspension bushings help much?

Hey i was just wondering if those poly bushing kits help much, I already have some tanabe gf210 springs and plan on getting some adjustable struts all around and am wondering if its worth the 80 to 120 bucks to get the bushings...

They will help if your bushings are worn out (it's been 20+ years already)... Poly is somewhat stiffer than the stock rubber bushings so it will help in handling with the slight improvement of road noise. You decide...

Yes. Was quite a bit of work to install, but noticeably tightened things up. Definitely worth it.
If you can't install it yourself you will need to budget more than the cost of the kit for labor.
