what do you guys think?
i would like to go thorugh and relace all bushings in my DA and heard + and - about the urethane

 

??

 

For the TA bushings most people will advise OEM or Mugen. The urethane bushings don't allow for the necessary movement of the arm and they can bind, causing problems.

There is an archived thread in the RR/AX forum that explains the problems associated with it. All I remember is that the author of the thread is user RR98ITR. If you do a search on the same RR/AX you will find other threads that have covered this topic.

I have Mugen in my DC2 because they are still rubber but much stiffer rubber. I don't know if they make them for the DA, but check with king motorsports or OPM motorsports(?) (I forgot their website).

 

here is the thread Vitt1 mentioned https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=493789

 

oem rubber. honda part number 52385-S21-003 for DC2/EG chassis about $25 each at http://www.magauto.com

all you need to do to make this one work for your DA is to reuse the metal 'sleeve' that the orignial bushings are in. honda does make a larger one but i am unsure of the part number and i do not know if it is for DA or for the accord.

 

its all about how you want your ride to be I had polyurethane bushings completly in the 4dr and it rode great but overtightening bolts will cause the bushing to bind and wear before time

 

ES and Prothane now have floating center pins. You're fine on the street. Get the urethane if for no other reason than the fact that rubber only lasts a couple years in that particular position.

 

A couple years could be 6K miles or 45K miles. I waited 10 years and 130K miles before I changed mine, although I'm sure they were not as effective by the time I changed them.
