+1 for being a retard for trying to make me seem incompetent or not know what i’m talking about.  
-1 for assumptions about somebody and their car

My point was what’s the point of wasting money on something you’ll eventually trash and that’s ultimately inferior. Not whether you are competent mr extreme mechanic.

I’d really like to see you do all that in 30 minutes. Hell I’ll give you 30 minutes to do all bushings on my z32 uprights. Last time I checked my car still had the parts on the car not on a shelf.

Now that I mention it… a nice cheap upgrade where you can lose unsprung weight on the rear is getting z32 uprights. They run for \<80 bux but you must get the conical spacer for the balljoint from nissan to get it to work.

On an s13 you can just use z32 dampers with fork mounts… not so sure on s14 fitment… but in either case the difference would be using a fork type mount instead of the bushing type mounts.

Edit with pic:

cast iron vs aluminumm if I recall 8lbs per side… pretty spiffy:
