The increased rate from twisting the rubber bushings was about as much as going up 1mm in T-bar size with the Rebel bushings. Thus, 20/26 T-bars with rubber bushings is about the same rate as 21/27 with the Rebel bushings.
Interesting but also at odd w/ what some very knowledgeable folks say about it
Pay attention to Chris-Seven and Driven 97

I keep an open mind about it but I didn't notice any ride stiffness increase when I installed the Sport rubber bush's in my 911

the all mono-ball suspension in my 993 does move almost frictionlessly and does transmit more high frequency vibration
