hyperflex kit(energy suspension) on ebay will have all of the suspension bushings in a single kit for about $88, close to $100 shipped.
DTSS eliminator bushings can be found from Mazdatrix.
polyurethane engine and tranny mounts can be found at Banzai racing.
as for a single kit with all of those? none that i know of, sorry.

I used an Energy suspension kit for most of the bushings, and got the DTSS eliminators, subframe mounts and rear diff mounts from Montgomery Machine and Racing (www.mmr-direct.com) I'm planning on posting a writeup on the MMR stuff once I've put a few miles on them. So far, I like them alot.

The prothane kit is still available at nopionline. Someone mentioned that it's not the entire kit as advertised...how complete is it then? Or better worded: what's missing in their kit?
I was thinking about getting that one. Glad I checked the forums first before buying. =).

if you want bigger sway bars save your money and get some from someone parting out a vert. The larger RB sways are just red vert bars. You should buy the new sway bar end links though.

Maybe i am just a little slow, but when the dealers say that the solid mounts tranfer more vibration then stock they are not kidding. On the bright side they feel really good during accleration.

i bought the rear steer elim. bushings from mmr-direct. They were 11 thou under Racing Beat's specs. They rattled in their holes. When I measured them with a micrometer, they came out to the specs that MMR had quoted! The sleeves looked like they had been fabbed by a caveman. Buy them if you'd like a nice laugh.
