I've heard that uhhhh...Nissan makes 'em too. ;)

Check with Pinnacle, nissanwholesaleparts.com,etc. We have a lot of sponsors who have good prices on OE parts. I'm gonna be hitting Pinnacle up for some timing/oil pump parts soon, myself.

I have the nismo tc bushings, they work pretty well, but I would rather have the tein adjustables if i had the money.

SPL!

i prefer them because they offer/will offer, the complete set of control arms. their tension rods are very reasonably priced, i have a set, but have yet to install them.

are the rods bent, or just need something that isnt as worn? its been said, but there are urethane options as well as stock replacements.

Just the busshing is cracked and leaked out all the goo and when im going slow it makes a clunking sound. PDM has OEM w/poly bushing for 95 each. Which sounds good to me.

Poly is bad because it needs to be drilled to relax it a bit becaue of its inability to flex properly. I have heard stories all over about guys cracking lower control arms w/ poly bushings. I have Project Silvia PB T/C rods, $150 shipped on eBay or $180 from http://www.projectnissan.com

i would think the added stress from urethane bushings would come into play more if you were using higher spring rates. if coilovers are in your future, then adjustable arms are probably the best bet, that is the reason i chose to go with them.
