I've got just a tick over 1,500 miles on my car, but early on I felt that the rear end was a little loose. After doing some research and digging around I knew that I needed this kit. Steeda also offers several great options but to me this kit is like the combination of their bushing support kit, the alignment pins, and their subframe support braces. Now while in conjuction these 3 items 'might' work better, there's no quantifiable way to test this, but IMO the BMR CB005 kit is the best bang for your buck option.
This kit has 1 piece bushing "cup" support pieces, compared to Steeda's 2 piece designs. The rear lower supports wrap around the entire bushing instead of just wedging on, like the Steeda one's do. Last but definitely not least, the subframe support brackets have alignment sleeves welded in and they are beastly. Did I mention how sweet these look in the Black Hammertone?! I didn't take but a couple pictures, and those are on my phone. It all looks the same as what they've got posted on their website, so just check them out here http://www.bmrsuspension.com/?page=products&productid=1543&superpro=0
Since I already had the car up on the lift I also swapped out the factory fill motor oil and transmission fluid with AMSOIL 5w-20 SS and AMSOIL Synchromesh respectively, but this is the suspension section so I'll just leave it at that.
I am in no way a sponsor or affiliated with BMR, nor do I dislike any Steeda products. On the contrary I actually love Steeda stuff, I just use them as a comparison point because they're very popular and many folks will be able to relate to their products.
