i changed mine and didnt notice sh*t lol. did the guys who notice a difference get the red or black 1? btw id go energy coz i imagine they are cheaper than oem, and id say it would last longer going by all the hype about their rubber on their website
yeh I don;t know if it was from bushing because I changed to an ITR shift linkage + shifter at the same time with my energy suspension. Was an impact overall.. but dunno which it came from.
It was the linkage, the bushings didnt make a difference to me, felt the same.
I was hoping it would reduce the shaking/vibrations on the gear stick too but it was about the same.
I got the black one btw.
damn i wonna install the new linkage but waiting on the bushings==
hmm if anything it's supposed to increase the vibrations and shaking because the bushings are more stiff which is what we want.Quote:

I assumed it was called 'energy' bushings for a reason. I was wrong haha
just put some energy bushings in my ek.... very firm.. ask benjammin
fairly firm lol. Still - better than old 14 year old rubber !Quote:

lol i need some energy bushings!
eBay US has it for $23US delivered, which should work out around $30AU. You just have to wait 1 week till they arrive.

You might wanna check underneath your car first if the exhaust is blocking the linkages because its a pain in the ass. Took me about 2-3 hours to install my short shift stick and bushings.
need to change to itr shifter too
to get best results imo
yeah bro i have an jdm itr shift linkage ready to be put it.
