They used to be made by Speedsource and sold through Mazda Motorsports, but now NLA ... good option if the race class allows metal/spherical bushings. I would advise against running high caster though.
Don’t you also have the offset bushing on the LCA ball joint?

Been use their poduct (supernow)since 2007
Dont know speed source made it lo
I think i would run like +7 caster with -4camber
With offset knuckle lowerbushing still
Not enough camber
I've been checking these out. It's about 900 bucks to both arms with all the spherical bushings. I haven't figured out if it's per side or for both though.
Looks like 55,000 Yen for all four LCA bushings/bearings

Confirmed 900ish covers both sides of the car.
and to clarify I meant pillow ball for uppers and lowers.
I’m on the SuperNow jp website. These are the upper arm bushings

Price ¥ 30,000 per vehicle (excluding tax)
Explanation [Light weight and rust prevention are also available]
This type uses aluminum for the pillow collar.
That’s 85,000 yen for the full front set, which at today’s exchange rate is $780 USD plus shipping
I’d personally recommend a delrin UCA set over spherical. You don’t need multi-motion bearings there. The set they sell at Motorsports now is not nearly as good as the Speedsource UCA bushings are/were.
i wouldn't think the sway bar needs pillowball either. The link should take care of movement.
I don't recall seeing anyone sell derlin for the uppers other than from mazdacomp offsets. I meant to reach out to them, same question I posted earlier. Buy one per side or does one cover both uca?
You don’t need offset UCA bushings if you have those LCA bushings with the offset LCA/upright ball joint bushings. I only run custom offset Speedsource-type UCA bushings with the offset LCA balljoint bushings because the class rules don’t permit aftermarket multi-motion bushings that are needed for the LCA caster and camber positions.

That explain u use leg 50mm header
On ur header mock up
Leg is pretty not mainstream out side of japan
Not sure what you mean by which side.
one goes on each side of the car. Camber is bushing closest to the front of the car. When you press them in make sure you orient the bolt hole so it’s closer to the centerline of the car.
Ah okay gotcha. I thought that it was possible the bushing went to the front and rear of the control arm but I wasnt sure since I didnt get any instructions.
