I'm planning to install an energy suspension bushing kit on my car... Does it make the ride really incomfortable? I alwredy have the energy engine mount and I can feel the vibrations in the car...

How bad is it?

subscribing.......i would like to know the same thing

 

do not install those POS in yr car. I put them in my car, especially the trailing arm bushing, installed complete kit. My car rode like ****, felt every single bump and everything and it got really annoying, to a point i didnt even like giving people rides in my car because its just embarassing. I ended up having to swap out trailing arm front and back with some kid from an integra that thought they were so cool, and replaced my trailing arm bushing with a stock one. I still have a couple of the bushings, i think the big one from the subframe to the LCA.
The big difference was the trailing arm bushing which really stiffened your ride up, the wrong way. bad design.
Well anyways, since i put everything back to stock, my car is riding soo much better now. Dont run into the same mistake I did. I didn't want to install the bushings myself, and i found a shop to do it for me for $250, which i think was a damn good price for the work. What a waste of money.

 

just depends what you want if comfort is a big issue then dont get them but if you dont care about feeling a lot of bumps in the road go for it. I have most of them installed on my car and i dont mind it at all.

Rear trailing arm bushing and front lower control arm bushings cause the suspension to bind resulting in a harsh ride. Don't install these... instead use the oem bushings or mugen etc. Pretty much every other bushing will work, slightly harsher ride but much better than sloppy worn/torn bushings.

I have the engine bushings in my car... Slightly more vibration felt at idle but its nice knowing when you have allot of power itll all go to the ground and not in the mount.

 

Well, I finally install the FR and RR shock bushing + My front sway-bar bushing since my rear one are brand new... I can feel the difference but on my way back, I didn't have the chance to try beacause I was in traffic.

I got an event soon in solo soon...this will tell

For the energy engine mount, I onw mines for 2 months and just love it! You can feel the engine and chassis bolt on togetter... Much more stability...
