    Ideally you'd want to get solid bushings, but you probably have to make your own. You can pick up the generic urethane bushings at autozone and those'll be a lot better than 20 year old rubber bushings.

    yeah they have a CRX swaybar kit that almost fits our cars. you need to trim them and get them to work all nice and stuff.

    Re: sway bar bushings

    well when i got my hands on an se-i sway bar i bought the sway bar bushings from www.p-s-t.com. great bushings no squeks and they dont deflect (theyre made out of polygraphite). I got the sway bar bushings for the 1990-93 integra(22mm $10 for the pair) and the endlinks for the 84-87 civic/crx kit(it includes the endlinks thats why you need to buy both kits seperatly) for $25. Awsome swaybar bushings dude i highly recomend them and all they cost me was 35 bucks.
    No more 3G but that doesn't mean i cant look at yours...

    Try to find an Acura Vigor rear bar; by far the best bang for the buck since you can find them at the j/y.
