Bushings

Suspension Bushings for Japanese and European Performance Cars

Worn or soft factory bushings let your suspension move where it shouldn't, and that flex shows up as vague steering, wandering under brakes and inconsistent alignment. Our bushings range covers polyurethane and heavy-duty rubber options for control arms, sway bars, subframes and diffs, built to tighten up that movement without turning every commute into a chore. We stock these because owners upgrading from stock rubber want a real, measurable improvement in response, whether the car is a daily driver around Sydney or something headed to The Bend for a track day. Poly bushings suit drivers chasing sharper turn-in and less deflection under load, while OE-style rubber replacements suit those wanting factory comfort back after age has taken its toll on the originals.

Shop by Vehicle

Bushings are available for a wide range of Japanese and European platforms, including Subaru WRX/STI, Toyota 86/GR86 and BRZ, Nissan Silvia and Skyline, Honda Civic and Integra, Mazda MX-5, and popular European chassis such as the VW Golf and BMW 3 Series. Fitment varies by kit and by which suspension component you're upgrading, so check the specific bushing set against your model and build year before ordering.

Shop by Product Type

The range includes control arm bushings, sway bar bushings, subframe and diff mount bushings, and full kits covering multiple points at once. Some are supplied as a direct swap for OE, others need press tools or a hydraulic press to install, so check the kit description for what's included.

Why Polyurethane Bushings

Polyurethane is harder wearing than rubber and resists the oil, heat and age-related softening that lets factory bushings sag over time. That firmness reduces unwanted suspension movement, which sharpens steering feel and keeps alignment settings more consistent under hard cornering or repeated track use. The trade-off is a firmer ride and, on some vehicles, slightly more noise transmitted through the chassis. We choose brands with a track record for consistent durometer and accurate OE dimensions, so the fitment issues and squeaks associated with cheap generic poly bushings aren't a factor.

Fitment & Installation

Bushing replacement usually means removing the control arm, sway bar or subframe component, pressing out the old bushing and pressing in the new one, then torquing everything back to spec with the suspension loaded (ride height set) rather than hanging free. Most installers use a hydraulic press or a suitable bushing removal/install tool kit rather than a hammer and socket, especially on tighter factory bores. Some AU-delivered models have running changes across model years that affect bushing size or arm design, so confirm chassis code and year against the listing. Fresh hardware (bolts, nuts, sleeves) is worth budgeting for if the originals are corroded or the design uses one-time-use fasteners.

FAQ

Will polyurethane bushings fit my exact model and year? Fitment depends on chassis code, model year and sometimes trim, so check the listing against your vehicle before ordering.

Do I need special tools to install bushings? Most kits require pressing the old bushing out and the new one in. A hydraulic press or bushing tool kit is typically needed unless the listing states otherwise.

Are poly bushings noisier than rubber? They can transmit more road noise and vibration than factory rubber, though good quality poly with proper grease minimises this.

Do you ship bushings Australia-wide? Yes, we ship across Australia.

What's the warranty on bushing kits? Warranty terms follow the manufacturer's policy for each brand we stock; contact us if you need details for a specific kit.
