X2 since it seems inevitable
might as well see how long they last and use the warranty to replace a set until it runs out

Re: (sohc95vtec-t)
so i guess i can pick up the wheels tuesday now
after the shop(not mikey) screwed up the first time when they were supposed to do black with an anodized royal blue lip they took them back and were supposed to do something entirely different since they failed and couldn't do it. got a call back from mikey a few minutes ago, instead of doing the the second plan they [freak]ing sprayed the lips with just a flat gloss blue which even mikey was like WTF(he was there while I was on the phone with him) and it took an additional week to do just that so now they are still at the shop getting redone for the 3rd time in as many weeks and I get them tuesday but at least they'll be how I want FINALLY
least Mikey is cool about it, he's giving me 100 back and said he will deliver them to my house since I've had to go all the way to his 3 times

Re: (sohc95vtec-t)
all this talk about the lca bushings scares me
i know too kids with blox lca. and i put blox lca on my girlfriends ek ( its ony been about a week)
i have cheap megan one on my car. they have been on there for at least 1 1/2 years. they were just off a couple months ago and i didnt notice anything wrong.
i wouldnt have put them on but where im from the lca bolts always break, and i had just spent all my money on coilovers, so i had to get the cheapest thing i could

3rd set of bushings in there after less then 10k miles.
two sets of skunk2 bushings, and i just decided to say [freak] it and i bought energy suspension master kit for my car!

Just a suggestion, when lifting the car and doing suspension work which requires you to tighten something onto a bushing. Pre-load the suspension!
For example, when doing the shock onto the rear LCA. If the car is jacked up and you tighten that bolt to the lca, once you drop the car that bushing is going to be twisted a lot and that is going to put way more stress on the bushing which will cause it to tear/rip/break faster.
Doing it the correct way is to use a jack and jack up from the bottom of the wheel so the suspension is compressed as if it was sitting on the ground. Then you can go ahead and tighten the bottom of the shock.

Thats similar to what we do.
