Default Mugen Bushing

It has been 8 yrs now. I figured that i might wanted to replace my bushings. I have seen a couple of posts on the feedback on the mugen bushings. They seems to have good feedbacks. So i am thinking to get the mugen bushing to replace my old ones. But after looking at the King's site, i see a long list of bushing that they sell. I want to ask, especially for those who have already replaced their bushing with mugen's. Which of those in the list did u replaced?

thx in advance

Lol, seems to be a common thing on those bushing sets. Everyone i see has bought them but never installs them. I purchased an Energy Suspension set for my CRX forever ago and ever put them on. Hell, the cars been gone for 2 years and i still have the bushing kit laying around..

You certainly cannot go wrong replacing anything on that list with its Mugen counterpart. I skipped the front and rear upper/lower arm units because I'm running Function7 rear lower control arms and the Orijin motorsports solid front upper arm kit and spherical lower arm kit. I will also be getting a front and rear camber kit, probably Skunk2 or something, eventually. The rear camber kit and rear lower control arms come with the poly bushings already pressed in and the Mugens are not compatible.

So, which one i should/can skip? If i have Skunk 2 Front camber kit and T1R Rear camber kit, everything else stock.

also what bushing for USDM ITR front Swaybar?

I am not exactly sure which ones they are but I know for a fact that there are no noticable differences between oem and certain mugen bushings.

I got 1,12,9,14 and may do the engine mounts at a later time.

This is when I was swapping out suspension and putting in the FLP road shifter. So that stuff had to come out anyways.

The car is more predicable in cornering with a good set of bushings.
