Default Tension bars poly/rubber?

How important are they?

Should I go poly or rubber on them?

Nissan dealership is the ONLY place i found rubber ones but I have to buy the whole bar.

I called XAT they may have them tomorrow. anyone know of some other places that may have them incase XAT doesnt?

I just noticed mine are FUBAR. and found a few other things I am a bit displeased about but whatever...

Do they make subframe connectors for S13s??

Basicly they all go bad even the ones on my dad's 98 240sx. Its a retarded design. Polys are the best they are 30 bucks and you can spend a few more bucks and SS will install them. you would not believe the differance. its like night and day.

Don't need subframes. Look under the car and you will see why.

Poly is the way to go. Pressing them out is an exciting experiance and the goo inside probably causes cancer in California. Also replace the swaybar end links while you have things apart. Makes a HUGE difference in crispness and accuracy.

Those were the only ones I saw in DIRE need of help. If I had the money I would do it all right now but oh well.

Swaybar end links are right around 20 bucks if memory serves. I got my tie rod bushings for about 24 bucks or so from AE.
