Re: Prothane or energy suspension?
prothane kit feels amazing after it's in i gotta say though if you are on the 26 year old bushings any new bushings makes it a thousand times better lol

Re: Prothane or energy suspension?
This question has been asked a million times I think. I even asked it myself when looking for bushings for my sc300. Energy suspension seemed to be the preferred brand from what I was reading. I don't have enough experience with either to really give you an idea. I'm happy with the ES bushing I bought for front & rear sway bar, and was planning to put ES all the way around when I have more time/money.
You'll probably be happy either way.

Re: Prothane or energy suspension?
Energy Suspension and Prothane are pretty comparable. ES can be had at your local O'Reilly's, Autozone, NAPA, etc...etc...
http://www.rockauto.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; is probably the best all around place to order car parts in general from clooney. You can even get Energy Suspension components through rockauto. If you can't find it there then ebay

Re: Prothane or energy suspension?
You think you have it bad? I tried ordering some trans pan bolts for my sc300 from a lexus dealer. 2 weeks later I have to call and find out they only had 12 out of 19 and had to order the rest from japan. JDM bolts baby!! Seriously though, I wish they'd show up soon.

Re: Prothane or energy suspension?
"lexus dealer" was your first mistake.
As for urethane bushings, I went with Prothane.
