They are a good bushing. Getting the diff mount out takes some time the 4 bolts ontop of the diff are not easy to get to. I got quite frustrated with mine a few times and had to walk away.

It sucks but if your bushings are anywhere near as bad as mine were it's well worth the time.

Little update,

ACT HD SS clutch, newer stock flywheel and RX-7 midpipe in.

Car drivers so much better with the new clutch.
Midpipe didnt make the car really any louder... im happy about that.

I have new rear end bushing that will get installed soon....when i get some more free time.

looking good, I had the act clutch and fidanza flywheel and it rev'd rediculously fast, I think next time I change the clutch I'm just gonna have my stock flywheel lightened and resurfaced so I can get a little better drag launches.

NEW tires are here!
I went with Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110... Max Summer tire
http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiresB...s+V12+evo+K110

A good performance tire for the price.

They placed 2nd in a Car and Driver comparison test...
