SUVs have taken the automotive world by storm, offering a commanding driving position, road presence and practicality that makes them a popular choice. But owning an SUV comes with its own set of challenges, particularly when it comes to wear and tear.
Owing to their higher centre of gravity and heavier build means key components like suspension bushings, tyres, and steering systems often work harder than in smaller vehicles.

The Impact of High Centre of Gravity on Your SUV
An SUV’s high centre of gravity makes it more susceptible to body roll, especially during cornering or sudden lane changes. Over time, this added strain can prematurely wear out suspension components, including the bushings. Worn bushings allow excessive movement in suspension arms, leading to several issues:
Excessive Tyre Wear: Misaligned or inefficient suspension geometry caused by worn bushings can cause uneven tyre wear. And let’s face it—SUV tyres aren’t cheap.
Knocking or Clunking: Worn bushings can produce annoying noises as suspension arms shift out of position.
Wandering or Meandering: When bushings wear out, the vehicle may feel unstable at higher speeds, making it a chore to keep in a straight line.
Excessive Body Roll: Without firm bushings to control movement, body roll increases, making the vehicle feel less composed and less safe on corners.

For Toyota Celica owners who want to unlock their car’s full potential while keeping it daily-drivable, upgrading the suspension with Polybush’s Kit 135 is one of the most effective modifications you can make. Designed to enhance the Celica ZZT230-ZZT231 (1999-2006) without compromising comfort, Polybush’s high-quality polyurethane bushes will transform your car’s handling, responsiveness, and durability. Here’s how.
Why Choose Polyurethane Over Rubber?
Polyurethane bushes offer several advantages over standard rubber, particularly when it comes to performance and longevity. Rubber bushes are notorious for wearing out quickly, becoming soft, and losing their structural integrity. This can result in a loose, unresponsive feel that detracts from the car’s handling. Over time, rubber can deform, perish and split, especially when exposed to weather extremes, road grime, and oils & UV. In contrast, Polyurethane is highly resistant to these factors and will outlast and outperform rubber by at least 4-5 times without the headaches of maintenance.
Key Benefits of Polybush Kit 135 for Your Celica
Improved Handling and Stability
Polybush bushes make a world of difference to handling, giving you a Celica that feels more planted and controlled in corners. These bushes work to reduce unwanted flex in the suspension, meaning you get immediate feedback from the road. The car feels sharper, more predictable, and far more capable on the twisties, all while retaining its comfortable ride for everyday use.
Enhanced Performance Without Compromising Comfort
Often, aftermarket upgrades come with sacrifices, especially when it comes to ride quality. But Polybush Kit 135 is different. We’ve designed these bushes to improve performance without giving your Celica a harsh, jarring ride. They’ll still soak up the small bumps and road irregularities, so whether you’re on a spirited drive or a long journey, you’ll enjoy a smoother, more comfortable experience.
Alignment Flexibility
Unlike rubber bushes where the tubes are bonded, Polybush’s polyurethane bushes use a non-bonded design. The benefit? This setup ensures that the bushes don’t seize over time, so you can make alignment adjustments whenever you want without worrying about a bush that’s “locked” in place. Whether you’re fine-tuning your alignment for performance or compensating for minor changes over time, this flexibility makes ongoing maintenance much easier.
Reduced Maintenance and Greater Durability
Polybush bushes are highly resistant to wear, unlike standard rubber which can degrade rapidly under stress. Installing Kit 135 means you’re not just getting a handling upgrade—you’re investing in a lasting solution. Our bushes are immune to the oil, salt, and grime that can deteriorate rubber, making them an ideal choice for both daily drivers and weekend cars alike.
A “Better Version” of Your Celica
Our goal is to make your Celica ZZT230-ZZT231 the best it can be—keeping that iconic balance of agile, sporty handling with comfort and driveability.

The MQB (Modularer Querbaukasten or Modular Transverse Matrix in English) platform from the Volkswagen Group is renowned for its versatility, underpinning many models across the V.A.G brands: VW, Audi, SEAT, and Skoda.
One of the key features in the MQB platform’s is its use of multi-link suspension systems in older 4wd vehicles or in the rear of higher horsepower models.
What Goes Into The Multi-Link Suspension on the V.A.G MQB Platform
44FC Fitted to Golf GTI
The MQB platform’s multi-link suspension includes a combination of upper and lower control arms, a trailing arm, and a toe control link.
Upper and Lower Control Arms: These arms control alignment through the arc of suspension travel. They are connected to the wheel hub and the subframe with bushings.
Trailing Arm: This arm is positioned longitudinally and helps in maintaining the wheel’s alignment during acceleration and braking. It also assists in absorbing longitudinal forces.
Toe Control Link: This link specifically manages the toe angle of the wheel, ensuring precise steering response and stability.
Anti-Roll Bar: Connected to the control arms or the subframe, it reduces body roll during cornering by transferring load between the left and right sides of the suspension.
Subframe: A secondary frame that provides mounting points for the suspension components. It adds rigidity and helps isolate the suspension from the main chassis, reducing noise and vibration in the cabin.
Bushings: Flexible (Rubber) mounts that connect the control arms to the subframe and chassis, allowing for controlled movement and damping of vibrations.
Shock Absorbers and Springs: These work together to absorb and dissipate energy from road impacts, controlling the movement of the wheels.
But What Are The Benefits of Multi-Link Suspension on the MQB Platform
Independent Wheel Movement: Each wheel in a multi-link suspension system can move independently of the others. This maintains maximum contact with the road surface, especially on uneven terrain, enhancing grip and stability.
Camber and Toe Adjustment: Adjustments within the links allow for precise adjustments of camber and toe angles. This adjustability helps in setting up the suspension for optimal tyre contact during cornering and braking which, improves handling and reduces tyre wear.
Camber: Correct negative camber improves grip in corners by allowing the tyre’s outer edge to remain in contact with the road. The multi-link design allows for camber changes throughout the suspension’s travel, keeping your alignment when you need it most.
Toe: Adjusting toe angle affects your vehicle’s response to steering input. Multi-link systems can finely tune these angles to achieve the desired handling characteristics.
What is Camber & Toe?
Understanding Camber & Toe: The Keys to Handling Performance
Camber refers to the angle of the wheel against a vertical point. Too much negative camber can lead to uneven tyre wear, (inner side of the tyre) whilst positive camber reduces grip. Toe, on the other hand, refers to the angle of the wheels pointing towards the centre of the vehicle. If toe is incorrect, the car will wander at the rear. Both camber and toe are crucial for optimal handling and tyre wear.
With Polybush resisting alignment changing forces, cornering and braking, you will maintain those angles. So you’ll experience consistent camber and toe settings, meaning maximum grip and minimal tyre wear.
Image Above Shows Front Suspension – The Concept Is Still Valid
Minimised Bump Steer: Bump steer happens when the toe angle of a wheel or wheels changes without any steering input from the driver. Multi-link setups are designed to minimise this effect, ensuring the vehicle maintains a straight path over bumps.
Isolation of Forces: The subframe and bushings isolate the suspension from the chassis, reducing the transmission of NVH (road “noise”) into the cabin. This contributes to a smoother, quieter and more comfortable drive.
Enhanced Handling: The independent movement of each wheel and the ability to adjust camber and toe angles ETC finely provide superior handling characteristics. This setup ensures that the tyres maintain optimal contact with the road surface, improving grip and stability during high-speed cornering.
Improved Comfort: The use of multiple arms and bushings allows for better isolation of road imperfections, resulting in a smoother drive. The subframe further reduces the transmission of noise and vibrations into the cabin.
Versatility: The multi-link suspension’s adaptability makes it suitable for a wide range of vehicles within the MQB platform, from family hatchbacks to performance-oriented models.
Durability: The design of multi-link suspension components enhances the system’s durability, through multiple loading points (compared to a rear axle which has 2) it is capable of withstanding the rigours of daily driving and spirited performance use.
Rubber Bushes vs. Polyurethane Bushes (More specifically, Polybush)
Bushes are crucial components in any suspension system, acting as the interface between various moving parts. They absorb shocks, reduce vibrations, and allow for a certain degree of flexibility. The two main types of bushes are rubber and polyurethane
Rubber Bushes
Material: Typically made from natural or synthetic rubber.
Characteristics: Rubber bushes are designed to offer a balance between flexibility and durability. They absorb a significant amount of road noise and vibrations, contributing to a comfortable ride.
Longevity: Whilst fairly effective at dampening, rubber bushes tend to wear out relatively quickly under harsh driving conditions, road salts, and oil and fuel contamination, leading to increased play and reduced handling precision over time.
Rubber suspension bush deforming under load – Polybush resists deformation.
Polyurethane Bushes (Polybush)
Material: Made from a synthetic polymer known for its durability and strength.
Characteristics: Polyurethane bushes are much more resistant to deformation than rubber, providing less deflection in the same hardness rubber. This resistance translates to more precise handling and a more direct connection between the suspension components and the chassis.
Longevity: Polybushes are significantly more durable than rubber bushes, maintaining their performance characteristics over a longer period and in more demanding conditions.
Benefits of Installing Polybush on the MQB Platform
Enhanced Handling: Polybushes reduces unwanted movement in the suspension components, leading to more precise handling. This is particularly beneficial for performance-oriented drivers who value sharp and responsive steering but as Polybush can be made in any hardness, it is still true for more “normal” vehicles.
Improved Stability: By maintaining consistent alignment settings, Polybushes help ensure that camber and toe angles remain within optimal ranges, even under heavy cornering or braking. This stability is crucial for maintaining grip and preventing unpredictable behaviour.
Longevity and Reliability: Polybush products are significantly more resistant to wear and degradation caused by environmental factors such as oil & fuel, UV light, and temperature changes. This durability means less frequent replacements and a more consistent performance over time.
Feedback and Control: For those who enjoy spirited driving, the more direct feedback provided by Polybush can be a revelation. The improved connection between the driver, vehicle, and road enhances the driving experience, making the car feel more predictable and controllable.
Conclusion
The multi-link suspension on the MQB VAG platform is a sophisticated system designed to offer a balance of comfort and performance. Understanding the role of camber and toe in this context helps appreciate how suspension tuning affects vehicle dynamics. While rubber bushes are adequate for many drivers, those seeking enhanced handling, stability, and longevity should consider upgrading to Polybush. Our material provides a more direct and responsive driving experience, making it a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to get the most out of their MQB-based vehicle.
