Dont get me wrong SPL is the shit and i know those would be the best route but i'm going to try this out and post up how it goes.

I currently have this z32 rear upright setup minus the spherical shock mount bushing on my s14.
I might have to shave a little off the upright.... the rear shock is hitting it slightly.
I've been looking for a cheaper alternative for that shock mount bushing but cannot find anything other than SPL's which is rape. Sadly it looks like I will have to eventually bend over and just take it.
As for the tension rod bushings I have experience with nismo's, ES, and the SPL rods. Nismos are hands down the BEST for daily driving only because they don't rattle your teeth out and still stiffen everything up a good amount.
Just be sure to get them pressed in correctly.... with the arrow pointing toward the back of the car. ALSO be sure to tighten the tension rod with the car on the ground to avoid tearing them up.
ES requires too much greasing and the spherical rods are too much for my kidneys
