Opinions and first hand experience with Labreck's Bushings

I bought My R1 off my buddy couple weeks ago. He also threw in a complete set of Labreck's Bushings he bought but never installed (white).

Anyone know the Unobtanium website, I can't find it.

I don't think I am going to install them myself, don't have the patience to do suspension parts.

Can anyone who has it, give me their honest opinions.

Here's his site: Unobtanium Bushings

You'll love the way the car feels more connected and the steering response is more immediate.

BTW, what's the turn-around time for polishing from your "contact"? And price for UIM, TB and AST? TIA.

Thanks for the response. Anyone else?

As for polishing. Turnaround times is usally 1-3 days. Very fast and very well done.

You want to polish your AST???

Hmm

Estimating it will cost about 120 for those three items. The more items you send at one time the better value you get for the price you pay.

include shipping cost to return the items.

I did almost all the major parts of my engine for about 400

Well,I just finished a weekend of racing at Daytona in my race preped FD,and these bushings are awsome.no complaints at all.your car will feel very solid but not to stiff(depending on your suspension).Highly recommend them,not only for performance,but also to save your differential from wheel hop damage if you drag race or like to drive spirited on the street.
