That worn rubber lets the lower control arm move around under braking, cornering, and hard launches, which shows up as vague steering, clunks, and the wheel hop a lot of Si owners fight when they put the power down. This Energy Suspension set presses into your existing control arms and replaces that mushy rubber with polyurethane that holds everything where it belongs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe payoff is a front end that feels tied down. Turn-in gets sharper, the car tracks straighter under braking, and the slop between your inputs and the tires goes away. Owners consistently call out that wheel hop disappears and the car just feels more solid and connected, which is exactly what you want on an Si you actually drive hard. It's one of the better dollar-for-handling upgrades on these cars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe honest tradeoff: more feedback\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolyurethane is firmer than rubber, so you'll feel a little more road texture and hear a bit more through the chassis than bone stock. On a driver's car that's the point. On a comfort-first daily it's worth knowing going in. A good coat of the included polyurethane prelube on install keeps them from squeaking down the road, and re-greasing if a squeak ever shows up is the fix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.3122R (red), 16.3122G (black)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFront lower control arm bushing set, polyurethane\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2006-2011 Honda Civic, all trims including Si\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Suspension Hyper-Flex polyurethane\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKit includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDurometer-matched bushings, zinc-plated steel sleeves, grease\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeft and right, presses into your OE control arms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Suspension limited warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRed and black are the same polyurethane at the same hardness, the only difference is the black is graphite-impregnated to be a little more self-lubricating, while red is purely a color choice (and makes wear easier to spot on a track car).

Budget a couple hours or have a shop handle it. If you're refreshing the front end, this is the time to knock it out.
