    So does it use some type R bushes and some DC4 bushes?
    step 1: goto hardrace website

    step 2: look up 'Acura'

    step 3: ???

      and no - the AU Type R uses the VTiR swaybar!!!

      the VTiR was produced BEFORE the Type R and the Type R was simply an evolution of the VTiR...

          +1 to tink's knowledge, he knows his sh*t and i'm pretty sure he owns a VTI-R chassis.

          If you are replacing front upper control arm bushings i am pretty sure most are press fit. Brands like Hardrace do a hard rubber bushing and spherical bearing bushings. Other brands like prothane or energy suspension do a polyurethane bushing.

            I already went to the Hardrace website, I can't find any product specs, just a way of sending a wishlist to them.

            As for the sway bar, all I knew was I needed the end links labelled "Type R", didn't realise it was a misleading label.

            But thanks tinkerbell, that basically answers that question. I need to buy the "Non- Type R" set of bushes.

            And I need to press fit them

                  just a shit website, I don't think they sell anything directly from there anyway

                  this is the australian site set up by jdmyard

                      Yes tinkerbell, it is very very obvious that the website has NO information on it, just the product codes, as I stated before:

                      Dorikin is right, its just a crap website. I will be ordering them from the JDM yard website, was just asking you guys which set to get.

                        You sure tinks? I thought the VTiR had a smaller rear bar? AuDM DC2R is 22mm, JDM is 23mm, I thought VTiR is smaller than both.

                          in the context of end-links - rear bar has the same end-links DC2/DC2R/DC4

                          he was talking about the front bar end-links - sorry for any confusion...

                            My hardrace engine mounts arrived! Yay for carparts!

                            Also, decided I LOVE the look of the Cusco GT wing that used to be on Felix's car, ages ago

                            Anyone got ideas on where to find one?
