Anyone know if this guy still makes his bushings?

I bought the same bushings but haven't had a chance to install yet. Note that Paul found they go on the rear subframe and moustache brace and not part rear and part front subframe as the DSMtuners thread says. I tried contacting the guy who made them but never heard back.

I just contacted Prothane, as they have a "subframe" kit as well for 1g's (Part # 13-102). They informed me that their kit also just includes the 4 bushings for the front subframe.

So, to clarify using what I have learned so far, nobody is making a rear subframe kit out of polyurethane. Looks like I may be giving window weld a chance...

How may people would be interested in these bushing for the sub frame.

I would be depending on price. What are you planning to make them out of? Depending on the hardness of the material, they look like they may be pretty stiff. Are you planning on having some sort of metal sleeve as an insert?

 

I would definately be interested in rear subframe bushings. Replacing the bushings is next on my list.

Also, which 4 bushings come in the front subframe kit? I see 6 mounting points here.

the ES kit does come with the bushings for the rear subframe, i got the kit from RRE a few years back and never used it on my eclipse so i used it on the gvr4. I think i have one and a half laying around without the metal sleeve. I remember it having all the bushings except new ones for the mustache brace

You SURE about that? my kit had no such bushings. Do you have a part number? I spent many emails and phone convos with ES as well as prothane and they don't make any bushings for the rear subframe.
