on the civic there was a big decrease in body roll, the car felt fantastic. it was a cheap alternative to a full suspension and even with the stock suspension it was alot better around turns (that plus better tires)

ive been in a honda accord with poly urethan bushings and the car barely dips over to a side when turning.. it tightens up the ride so well.

especially since the 240 bushings are LIQUID FILLED.

u cannot isntall em urself by the way.... u need a bushing press machine with like 2 tons of pump force to get the bushings centered nicely. ive used the machine to put the bushings on Volkswagen parts.

and each bushing takes like 5 - 10 minutes if the nissan ones are as easy as the vw ones.. i was pretty new at installing em, so either i did a quick/shit job, or i did a slow/shit job...

but i believe there are more pieces in the nissan kit.

i would replace em after the stock ones start gushing out the liquid.
they should be fine for normal/street driving.. once they go rotten, just have em changed. try it before getting the tires swapped, that way u notice the difference and can spot something thats wrong.

it does make the car alot more stiff.. but its a small sacrifice of rideability..
then again, i dont think the bushings in the accord were the toughest ones.. i believe they were sort of a 2 or 2.5 on 1 - 3 hardness scale.
