energy suspension bushings
WHAT A ------- WASTE OF TIME!!
So I installed my clutch and while I was down there I noticed that my end link bushings were ----.So I go to rice boys..oops I mean Pep Boys and to my surprise they have a full set there for the 92-95 civic.Being the impulsive buyer that I am I leave the $8.99 end link bushings that I had in my hand and opt for the whole $120 bucks kit.
I cat tell the difference at all.Im pretty shure if I would of done a before and after SOLO run or something I could of been able to tell but for a daily driver I dont think its worth it.
Plus it was a pain in the *** couse I did the old burn the rubber and beat the ring out technique since I dont have access to a press(to pop the old bushings out).
Has anny one else done this to their car?
Did you think it was worth it?...or was I just me

sccaeg no I dont drive like your mom.Your a ------- idiot if you buy Mugen grease...Ill sell you Mugen ----.It smells JDM .
It just fells the same to me.I need to get it aligned now but hopefully soon Ill be able to hit the next SOLO event and see how solid it feels.
I was just pissed when I made this post couse Im tired and greasy *** ----.
Trance its not that hard.I read in sports compact magazine how they burned the rubber out and pop the metal insert in the middle.Then you just beat the metel out(helps if you have a vise and some beater sockets) and press the new greased bushing in.Thats what I did.The harder ones are the lower trailing arm ones.After that you just grease them up and slide them in .
