Best polyurethane bushings

I am swapping out my trans for another 5spd. Mine died. Both compliance bushings are shot on either side and so are the motor mounts. What are the best polyurethane bushings to replace mine with. Thanks alot.

if you are getting polyurethane bushings get ready for a really noisy uncomfy ride, the car will rattle like a b!tch on take-off, but it'll be more responsive. I have the black energy suspension ones on my car. g luck

^^ Also, when I was installing MrXclusive's bushings I had to modify them a bit just to make them fit! The mold for them must be sloppy, as they were rough around the edges and did not want to slide into the gaps on the stock bushings.

On a side note, you need to change your driving style if you killed a manual transmission and the bushings.

Well, he still killed the bushings, and I know Mr Xclusive is an aggressive shifter. Then again, I find that the 7th gens have poor build quality all over. With that said, the manual tranny in my E30 has just over 500,000 kms on it, and shifts butter smooth. It's just a bit noisy at idle (typical roar of all older Getrag transmissions). Guys in Europe run 800 hp turbo monsters on stock transmissions!!
