Hi guys just some advice needed I have just bought a coupe 20vt and it has fk coil overs fitted , just from the right hand side when you hit a bump there is a knocking sound !
I've been told that I need a New top mount bush can anyone else confirm this and where and what part that I might need
Many thanks ian

Sounds like a top mount, the FK's are often fitted with bravo top mounts so worth checking before you buy a replacement.

as Jame5 said your going to need bravo top mounts

No fellas, the FK unit has a separate bearing race which fits inside the standard coupe top mount.

The knocking could be anything from a worn top mount, worn anti roll bar drop link or worn wishbone bushes?

Jack it up and see if anything is loose, also make sure the spring isn't loose with the weight off the floor.

was thinking of droplinks or even balljoints. My bravo has a driverside clunk,i replaced both droplinks,still doing it. Got it up on ramps and turns out the arb bushes are goosed,we cud move the arb side to side..

Are the bravo top mounts expensive ? And thanks for the advice

Forget the bravo top mounts for now, it's a conversion you can do but the guys above are thinking of KW coilovers which use them, the FK units use standard top mounts.

Thanks Jimbo

are they good the FK coils?
i was thinking to put ones in my 20vt it's the cheapest option...

Not really, they're bumpy and crashy.

Cheap only means one thing when it comes to coilovers unfortunately

They are not actively rebound adjustable, which doesnt help.

Overall i've been quite happy with mine this year, although the car has only been used for track use

ive been running coupe mounts, and the 100nm springs, instead of the standard 80nm.

I think the ride in mine is ok it's not that bumpy and you kinda get used to it , I just need to stop the knocking from the front right drivers side which I think is a worn top mount ?
