i dont know if this is a attempt from you to troll or what.
but if you are trying to get some help. try using decent English. maybe some periods at the end of your sentences would work, because i cant understand what you are trying to say. you even misspelled words in your signature.

remove the oem Rear arm bushing and clean of all rubber metal parts of I realize that hub oem bushings are bigger than energy that almost half inch.

so I search in the internet and in this forum of curse antesedentes similar and found nothing similar to this particular case also search in the Catalogue of Energy Suspension products and show only a part number for 92-00 Honda Civic 94-01 Acura Integra is 16.7106R that was to buy and I have it in my hands, I decided to see this enegy bushings mounted in other civic bushing metal parts and fits perfectly... including bushing bolt from the swap to buy is bigger than a regular civic

basically my question is: there any difference between Integra 94-98 Trailing Arm Bushings to Integra 99-01 Trailing Arm Bushings?

I'm not hedging your question but the easy way to find this kind of stuff out is looking it up. Go to hondaautomotiveparts.com and look and see if the part numbers are different. If they are different, then that means that there is something different about them. As far as what that is, I couldn't tell you. I'm assuming English isn't your first language by the posts, but you might want to brush up on sentence structure a bit, because it is really difficult to discern what you want. Good luck with your question!

You probably have 1990-1993 DA rear trailing arms.

Wow. Just simply WOW.

I would say maybe try calling up Dr. Phill to help your arms/bushing deal with the devastation. Some consoling will help them feel better and heal.

I just ran into this same problem, I bought a set of rear trailing arms from a "GSR", nope the OD on the RTA bushing is ~84mm which means 90-93 DA integra trailing arm.
The only difference between the 94-01 RTA and the 90-93 RTA is the bushing.
I bought bushings for a 94-01 RTA and they were too small, DOH!
I actually ended up swapping the hubs from the 90-93 RTA onto my civic RTA (if you end up doing this, get the proper TORX bit and use heat, the bolts usually have blue lock-tight), hammered the new bushing in, and called it a day.
The 94-01 RTA bushing is significantly cheaper than the 90-93 bushing, so I would advise swapping the hub onto your existing arm.

Oh, and I would advise AGAINST using the energy suspension part for the RTA, you have to burn all the old rubber out, and use the existing pin. Also, it's a solid bushing compared to the OEM bushing and tend to bind over time.

Good luck!
