na diff in tt
if your car is going to be a tracker only then yes change them to polly bush .. but if your normal driving then stick with the rubber type not so harsh on the bumps as for godspeed .. its a Cheap brand some of there stuff is ok but not sure on the suspension parts S14 hubs can be made to fit but take a little machining if its steering rake your after then those hubs and modified rack

it takes around 15>20mph of the Overall top end speed .. so it works out at Max RPM>Speed is 165>170 Depending on rev limit 0>60 is about 1 sec quicker just makes the car feel like its got more power really Itmes u need Subframe Diff Diff half shafts Rear Half of Prop and Front Yoke of the front at the Least ... or complete drive shaft Lower arms Upper arms Tack rod arms Hubs & Bearing assembly
