Guidance needed for Energy Suspension Bushing workshop

If post office asks you to collect, there may be tax, (auto parts tax) based on invoice. At least that's what I've been told...I've never ordered directly to Malaysia before...

Workshop is SM Racing in Sg.Merab (near Bangi & Ptjaya), contact the owner directly for a price quote. I dont think youll get the same price as I did though, maybe a little bit higher....mine was 3 years ago price..
I'll PM you the number.

aalto, SM Racing sg merab is paie??
 
There are some issues though for me, mainly hard braking entering a corner (or during trail braking) & braking in high speed corners. The rear of the car becomes a little bit "twitchy/loose" & can cause some oversteering. Remember I said to get stock or mugen/spoon, hardrace bushings for the real trailing arm (big). If you use the Energy bushings (like I did), you will get this issue, bcoz on the stock bush design there is 2 axis movement (updown & side2), whereas the Energy ones allow only 1 axis movement (up down). The kit you saw in the link doesn't include this bush and needs to be purchase separately, so I recommend you get other rubber bushings for this.

hi guys, i'm also quite interested in changing the complete set of bushings in 89 crx to energy suspension. Do any of you guys who used energy bushings mind sharing their experience regarding the comfort level of using these bushings. i understand that it do compromise some comfort to achieve tight handling..but does it compromise alot of comfort? for example hitting a small hump feels like hitting a rock?

Its not harsh, but firmer. Overall comfort really depends on your coilovers..
 
Thanks, currently im using an eibach coilover with stock absorber..as for now it's pretty comfortable..absorption feels just nice for road handling. If I change the bushings and retain the coilover and absorber, do u think it would be ok? Or I need to change to a sportier suspension. And this is for daily drive car.

If your already satisfied with your current setup, changing to energy bushings wont comprise your comfort levels, In my experience it kinda makes it feel more comfortable as running over bumps has a more firmer feel (like a new car ride feeling).

Worn bushing tend to make your car ride harsher due to the hardened rubber & banging of the joints. It'll also cause the car to jump around when running over bumps & humps...especially during cornering.
