SuperPro Bushings

I'm not sure about the rest of you on here, but I've had a fairly difficult time trying to find any shops that could supply these bushings, let alone at a reasonable price.

After doing some research, it turns out that SuperPro is manufactured by a partner/affiliate/subsidiary(?) of Tein. I got the part # for the kit from a Tein rep and proceeded to ask just about every shop in the King County area for quotes/availability on this part.

As it turns out, just a few hours after requesting quotes from these shops, another board member sold me his SuperPro master kit that he had acquired from a previous group buy, so I no longer need to find a source for these bushings, but I thought I'd pass on what I found to anyone locally who was in a similar situation.

The full kit retails for a crazy $700+, but I found that WorldOne in Kent was able to get this kit and quoted me $500-ish for them. I've delt with WorldOne in the past with great success, so this might be worthwhile for anyone hurting for a poly bushing upgrade.

Overall world one isn't bad to work with. They always seem to sell me back ordered parts though. After a couple weeks when my stuff shows up, I normally have to call a couple times to get a hold of someone and make something happen. Once, I ordered some brake pads that were discontinued. It took them /a month/ to tell me that they couldn't get the part and offer alternatives. They eventually made everything right, but if you are on any kind of schedule, you need to ride them to get them to do their jobs in a timely manor.

Sorry to hear about your bad experience with them. I usually deal with Armin, did he also do your order?

I dont remember waiting too long for my previous order with them, but it wasn't a discontinued part (camber plates). I also live not too far from their shop, so I have the ability to visit them in person haha.
