I came across an old thread when DPE had these for sale:



As they're no longer in business, are there any other vendors that sell these Whiteline 27mm bushings for the stock/MS RX-8 FSB?

Thanks!

Try calling Whiteline. Or buy my car

I'll call Whiteline if no one knows of any vendors. Your car looks great and obviously is a top performer, but I purchased my '06 2 weeks ago.

google search "whiteline + rx8"

I think Global is the importer to the U.S. for all Whiteline stuff.

do you need bushings, or just want to get the yellow ones?

if you need bushings, autozone carries energy suspension bushings that has a greasable fitting retrofitted into the bracket for many swaybar applications.

Bootleg

even though they mostly sell subaru stuff i'm sure Kevin at www.kastleskorner.com can get them for you chike. or, there's always dale and patrick at www.boxer4racing.com .

Thanks for the links and advice everyone. In the end, I decided to go with the Mazdaspeedstore that SouthFL linked.
I've ordered a set of Whiteline FSB bushings, and the total price came to $27.10 shipped to my door.

you should have just bought Energy Suspension bushings, includes new brackets and costs less

That is what you use right.... Hmmm, you just happen to be the only guy I know that has broken a swaybar bushing mount on the RX-8. Yep that sounds like a great part to buy.

Installer error unfortunately, also a different size bar/bushing setup

of course I break transmissions too

Before posting this thread I searched and came across an old thread talking about the energy suspension bushings. It was mentioned in that thread that on one side of the car, the bushing was a little too wide and didn't fit perfectly.

When I read that, I decided then and there to get the whiteline pieces that use the factory brackets. I had a whiteline FSB and bushings on my former 2.5L WRX, and I know their products work well.
