Ahhh, since this is an OBD 1 '92 XSi motor w/ ys1 tranny and not a first gen
:naughty:

I have the same setup in my Rex except I am running OBD 0 so what will happen is I will go OBD 1 now and my buddy will get my OBD 0 equip. So he will be OBD O and I will be OBD 1 (Vtec always kicked alot harder with my OBD 1 setup in my EG and my DA)

We went this route for the higer compression B16 and the bigger Ys1 tranny that corrisponds with the USDM GS-R so if something happens in the future then replacement parts are not to hard to find (unlike the smaller spline 90-91 b-series trans) My rex came with an LSD equipped trans but it was the 90-91 and needed 3rd and 4th gear sets so I had no way of affordably rebuilding it but it worked out because I already had my GS-R tranny in hand.

I am not sure about those bushings, your best bet is to contact energy suspension or prothane for an accurate answer otherwise start a new post so more people will see it.

VTEC larger than DOHC = 2nd gen. Other differences of course but this is easiest to spot.
