We've Got Bush! (Back in stock from Whiteline. For your front swaybar. . .)
Or Bushings, as we call them in the USA. Those Aussies have slightly different names for things sometimes; some of them even slightly amusing to those of us old enough to remember Revenge of the Nerds. . . 
Anyway, Whiteline front polyurethane swaybar bushings that fit both OEM and Mazdaspeed front bar are back in stock! Starting with seven sets this time. Read below for the details, pulled from my other thread on the subject.
Prompted by a suggestion from our very own RX8club.com National Autox Champion, DPE and Whiteline have teamed up to bring you polyurethane front swaybar bushings for your OEM or Mazdaspeed-equipped RX-8! These bushings are substantially stiffer than the OEM rubber parts, and will allow your OEM or Mazdaspeed front swaybar to react to driver inputs with greater precision and responsiveness. The bushings are identical to those included with the Whiteline front swaybars, and can be used with the OEM or Mazdaspeed bars which both measure a similar 27mm. The kit includes a pair of front poly bushings, grease, and a Whiteline sticker. Installation is simple and does not require removal of the swaybar. Please do not order these if you already have a Whiteline front Swaybar; you already have these bushings .
The price is $25 shipped, and I have 7 sets available. They can be purchased through our website using a credit card here: http://www.dpeweb.com/ProductDetails...9&vehicleID=58
If you'd like to use Paypal, send $25 to paypal@dpeweb.com and make sure you mention what you want AND include a phone number for shipping purposes. They will ship either FedEx or Priority Mail.
To install:
- Lift the car up on jackstands or ramps. Easier if you can remove the front wheels, but it can be done without.
- Remove the swaybar-to-chassis bracket nuts (2)
- Remove bracket
- Remove old squishy rubber bushing
- Grease up the inside of the Whiteline bushing. You may want to grease the outside as well. Can't hurt.
- Install bushing over swaybar.
- NOTE: Failed to mention this earlier, but the bushing should be installed with the 'cut' toward the front of the car. This will prevent the bar from trying to pry apart the bushing under load. Not a major concern if you have already installed them the other way, just something to consider redoing the next time you have the front of the car lifted up.
- Install bracket
- Tighten nuts to 26-37ft-lbs.
