Default Question about bushings.

Hello...

With the upgrade of my suspension beeing a few days away, I'm also thinking about upgrading some bushings.
Here in Portugal, Powerflex is considered a very quality brand and is very easy to find.
The thing is that I downloaded their catalog, but they don't have TI specific bushings. They have however E36 saloon/coupe bushings, E30 bushings and Z3. So I guess I could probably use the E36 front bushings and the E30 rear ones, correct?
Here is the catalog:

What bushings would fit the TI, and wich ones are worth upgrading?
Also, is the UCC tranny mounts a good upgrade?

Hope you can help me out.

Regards!

I have 95 M3 LCA bushings up front and Ireland RTAB and Subframe bushings in the rear. Personally, I'd stick with stock bushings in the rear and look into solid M3 bushings up front.
