Sooooo has anyone noticed that SuperPro inventory is a bit... weird? Or am I stupid. Looking for rear sway bar bushings and I feel like they are scarce. I believe the part number is
spf3108-<insert size here>

I also noticed Cygnus no longer carries SP at all :-/

i dont think cygnus has carried super pro for a while now.

i'd look into ordering from super pro directly. or if you know the width of the bar you could likely just use whiteline or another brand bushing.

I actually used to buy a bunch of stuff from Geoff at Cygnus. Mainly SuperPro stuff, including sway bars. Last year I was in a bind trying to get an ELH and thus I reached out to him. He informed me of the supply chain issues at the time which was understandable given the situation. He also told me that Cygnus performance was focusing more on moving towards doing coilovers and suspension. I guess nowadays its just coil overs for them.

i hope he eventually gets more suspension stuff. i'd like to swap out all the bushings and really correct the geometry of the suspension on the car now. it's not terrible but some of the bushings are oem and have almost 150k on them lol. so much to address with the car, it's never ending haha

You can find super pro stuff on ebay. A quick search shows a decent selection of stuff.

i wouldnt trust car parts from ebay. too often they are some cheap knock off, you can always order through super pro directly, which is likely the best option

If you're ordering from a reputable company like Real Street or someone similar there's little chance of there being an issue. But I understand your waryness.

but why use ebay then, why not just order from real street or similar company directly?

I tend to agree, I'm very selective about what I buy on eBay. Something like bushings probably wouldn't be a big issue IMO, but things were quality is a concern is more important. Was looking at oil temp gauges and AEM is warning people about a heightened amount of knock offs on "3rd party" auction sites lol.

That all being said, I'm a slave to Amazon so if it's there, that's where I tend to buy stuff. I get 5% cash back, so that makes me feel nice

Also recentish picture of the car

Just welded this turbo housing for a buddy, been a long time since I did any aluminum, rusty af:

If you need the codes for the superpro bushings and related suspension stuff, I probably still have them all somewhere from having bought all of those from Geoff a couple years ago.

i get that. but if it's not the same rubber and it is a knock off from ebay, it wont last very long. i'm just not a fan. (although i do order ALOT from amazon, just not car parts lol)

Because the prices on ebay and the prices straight from the vendor aren't always the same.

I'll keep that in mind. Hoping to inspect things soon - I'll be honest I even forgot what size sway bar I have back there

Sometimes I think I’m an absolute glutton for punishment. :-|

Apparently my pictures didn't post ...
