Re: Suspension bushing kit - what have used?

Well, a month and a few e-mails later and no word from the fine folks in Poland who took my $146. :mad:

I'll have to Google how to say "scam" in Polish I guess.

Re: Suspension bushing kit - what have used?

I probably wouldn't know the difference myself, but as long as they fit I'll be fine. I ordered the less expensive (by a few bucks) set, so they'll probably be a little softer, which will be fine by...

Re: trouble with new SVX remote

That's how I read that too. Not totally sure though. I need to try this.

I just got this SVX a few months ago and it came with a (very worn) remote. I put a new A23 battery in it but got...

Suspension bushing kit - what have you used?

I'm in need of all new bushings in my front suspension (and probably at least one ball joint). I searched the forum but only found a couple of older posts that didn't prove as helpful as I'd hoped. ...

WTB: tan leather passenger seat (rear seat too, maybe)

I've got a '97 LSi with tan leather seats and my passenger one just went from a mere seam split to a leather split.

Re: Delta Speed "JDM side step"

Unfortunately I just got brand new tires on my 96's OEMs, which I just swapped onto my "new" '97, so it'll be a while before I'm in the market. :(

The '97 had 20 X 9s (I think they might have even...

My GPS shows +5 @ 35mph, +6 @ 45mph, and + 7.5 @ 65mph. Meaning to go a true 35mph, I have to show 40 on my speedo, to go 45 it needs to read 51, and when I'm on the highway at 65mph, my dial is...
