I guess the time has come to replacing upper/lower control arm bushings....
Im leaning towards Daizen http://www.tmengineering.net/suspens...n/make/sc.html,
then I also found Carson Tuned http://www.l-tunedparts.com/product/?id=1868.

What do you guys think???

 

I would go with the Daizen kit...It looks more durable....

 

i would go with daizen as well. In fact, i just had my whole suspension done with daizen

 

How much did you spend on parts and labor on whole suspension??? I assume you got it done at TMengineering...
I might take a road trip to LA and visit Todd.

 

I spent 125 on parts, and 500 to get the LCA's installed, it took Jason at JPI a day, but it's a LOT tighter steering and handling now, and I think it's worth it! Don't try to install it yourself though, it is a hard install and if you mess something up, those control arms are NOT cheap!

I had installed the Daizens on my SC400. The ride is firm but so harsh (bouncy) and squeaky. I had to regrease the bushings 2 times. And the last time when I took them out, there's no grease left. I then decided to change to the rubber bushings (like stock bushings) and the ride was back like factory. I love it.

 

I don't know how much I am paying. LOL. I just dropped off my car and said gimme everthing daizen. I haven't picked it up yet.... so I haven't paid...

 

I did the Daizen camber bushings in the upper control arms front and rear

I was able to do the fronts myself. The rears.... not so much. Big labour bill for those. They are a ***** and I still have no idea how the shop got them out with just hand tools. You can't get power tools in there.

Be prepared for a stiffer more firm ride with Daizen. I would recommend OEM if you want to keep the soft ride.

 

There is also another Australian company that makes bushings firmer than OEM, but not as hard and noisy as the Daizen bushings...it was posted somewhere on Clublexus, but I forgot where. Perhaps someone can help us out remembering the name/model?

 

vlamos bushings is what you are thinking of
