Essentially it tightens up the rear end. There is not as much flex during acceleration and front/back momentum changes, making accel amd braking more precise to input. There are a couple reviews around the forum that i will look for later and link here

Also it shouldn't add much harshness or noise from what I have read.

Sweet. We are over 10! I'll get in touch with the vendor tomorrow (or today I guess) about payment instructions. If you would like other bushings please let me know what the part number(s) you would like.

OK everyone, so here is the deal. I just spoke with Performance Driven Parts and was informed all bushing will need to be shipped to one address for the price he quoted us. Not perfect, but workable hopefully.

I am in Stockton, but come out to the bay area somewhat often for meets or any other reason. I attend the monthly Dublin meet-n-greet and could make it out to the weekly South Bay meet as well. If there are a group of you in an area I can pass them off as you all tell me if needed. I am also looking at maybe getting us a good deal at a shop to install these as dropping the subframe may not be for everyone, so getting the part there is also an option.

If this is OK with everyone I have the paypal info for the vendor for us to move forward. Sorry for the last minute kink, but I didnt know until I asked for payment instructions.

How hard is it to do the install yourself assuming average to above average mechanical aptitude?
