I'm currently running Cusco sways with OEM endlinks. I purchase polyurethane D mount bushings from Summit Racing, they definitely made a big difference in cornering.

The stock ones work fine as well, the polyurethane bushings are stiff, which flex less under stress, and do not wear out as fast as regular rubber bushings. As for the the D-mount bushings I wasn't too concerned with replacing them but they were the only ones I could find. I was actually looking into changing the Endlink bushings with polyurethane ones but have been unable to find them or find the right ones. From what I've read on the board the 05' models which have the "beefed up" endlinks would work fine with the Cusco sways, but personally, I would like to change them out when I find them one day.

I think SPL makes aftermarket endlinks for our cars.

I just ordered some SPL front endlinks the other day cuz something in my suspension is making rattling noises when going over uneven pavement. Plus with hearing about some people's endlinks breaking, I'd rather be on the safe side. I only bought the fronts though. Hoping I can do without upgrading the rear endlinks since they are so freakin expensive.

Cool, i guess since i have an 05, i'll keep using OEM's, these bushings, i'll have to look into. can you feel the difference between OEM and polyurethane D mount bushings?
