Anyone have either of these? What do you think?

If I can find a place that sells Energy Suspensions set then I might get those because they are cheaper. But then again if the Mazdatrix quality is better, I would pay more for them.

Thanks

 

Nevermind. I'm going with Energy.
Anyone know who stocks them???
Jegs said they'd get could get them but it'll take like 3weeks.

 

suspension.com & shox.com....I'll be buyin mines today!

 

Scratch that. I just ordered them all from Mazdatrix. $250. Ouch!
I heard that the Energy set does not fit as well as others.

 

I just saw in the Victoria British catalog that Energy Suspension has a polyurethane bushing set that contains "graphite impregnation". Anyone had any experience with this set? This is the first I have seen it and was hoping the self-lubricating properties of the graphite would eliminate the need to drill zerk fittings into some of the bushings.

Any thoughts, experience?

 

I ordered and installed the energy suspension full kit for my FC and everything fit perfect. 108.00 to my door. not bad!

 

West....where did you get them and what bushings were included?

I bet you $10 the ones mazda trix sells are E.S.

 

My sway bar bushings I got from Mazdatrix were Energy Suspension.Good chance the whole bushing kit you speak of is as well.

 

^If thats the case then I'm glad I changed my order and got em from suspension.com
There is about a $100 difference if you add em all up

 

the es kit dosn't come with very much. probably not even worth $100. what did you have comming from mazdatrix? you probbaly had toe bushings etc wich ES doesn't have.

 

I am trying to find bushing kits for my FD, besides Mazdaspeed I don't seem to be able to locate any. ES have kits for FC but not FD. Any idea guys?

 

I still have the Toe eliminator bushings from Mazdatrix.
The "$100 savings" is from the total price I am paying from suspensions.com vs. mazdatrix.... Which includes all sway bar bushings and control arm bushings...

That may not be $100, but is a lot higher. Believe me, I am not getting ripped at all. I did the research.

 

try gettin in touch w/ Jimlab....

 

Aight, I added it up...
For Mazdatrix- Roughly $180 for Sway bar bushing, sway bar endlinks, front and rear control arms. bushings...
Energy Suspension is bout $105 for the same...
There it is...
I guess bout $80 savings
I still have mazdatrix Toe eliminator bushings ($40pair)
Bah!!

 

ah, mazdatrix sway bar endlinks. you mean the metal ones? much different then the ES bushings. there is your whole "saving" right there. 2 different products.


I just bought the the ES front and rear control arm bushings from mazda comp for $50. the sway bar ones are $25 front and rear. but didn't order cause I want bigger bars anyways. didn't see the endlink bushings there but they are only for 86-88 ones anyways.

and mazda trix toe bushings are racing beat as I'm sure the control arm ect are ES.
