Yeah I know, I could do all protegé, Escort and MX3 boards but I'm afraid I would not be able to keep up with the demand. That's why I'm doing one board at a time and small group buys.

Buy these people..... they are great. I haven't seen a better substitute on the market yet. the polyurethane control rod bushing can't even compare to Nyoil ones. I installed the Nyoil control rod bushing last night(shift linkage ones already installed;p)... all of my shifter problems are now non-existant.

Wow don't be such a :suckie: , people will start to think I paid you to say that!!!

Seriously, thanks for the nice comments... and also thanks for being my US test bench!!

With respect, can you explain exactly what you mean when you say, "the polyurethane control rod bushing can't even compare to Nyloil ones." Now, the OEM bushings are apparently designed to damp some of the vibration between transmission and shifter and so therefore are made of rubber to accomplish this end. One consequence of this material choice is that it introduces a certain amount of play or sloppiness into the shifter action.

The replacement Kartboy stabilizer rod bushing is made of polyurethane that, unlike rubber, has no built-in 'give' or flexibility that serves a vibration-damping function. As a consequence, the shifter and the transmission are much more rigidly coupled together eliminating a considerable amount of looseness and wasted motion and making shifts feel more precise. According to Kartboy's installation instructions, lubrication of the outer surface of the bushings is unnecessary-only the metal sleeve and mounting stud need be lubricated, probably to prevent corrosion and seizing of the metal parts. In other words, a self-lubricating bushing is not required.

My question then is, what makes the Nyloil bushing so superior to the polyurethane one? As already indicated, the fact that the Nyloil bushing is self-lubricating can't be a factor. What characteristic(s) of nylon would make it more suitable in this application than polyurethane? I'd really like to know because if it can be demonstrated that the nylon bushing will increase the coupling rigidity over that of polyurethane, I'll make the switch myself.

I think it's great that Maz1.8T is making this product and giving us a competitive choice. If his product is at least the equal of Kartboys, that's good news. However, if it turns out that Maz1.8T's bushing is the superior one, that's even better news for us all.

yes, what makes them superior to the polyurethane ones I had developed awhile ago?

And how much for just two of the smaller ones shipped?

[goldstar]

Gro Harlem,
I was aware that you had also developed polyurethane bushings for that location but I had forgotten that fact when I wrote the above. Sorry, I should have mentioned your polyurethane bushings along with those of Kartboy's.

Excuse me for being a

i don't care, i'm talkin to bpt323 who is probably just BSing to sell em.

I don't really care. His nyoils are probably exactly the same as the ones I used to sell, and I don't care if he sells them. I have zero sets left anyways & can't get more b/c I lost contact w/steve, the shop owner guy awhile ago.

But saying they are better is retarded b/c its teh same thing...a harder durometer plastic bushing that fits like a glove. Only thing that would be "betteR" for shift feel would be a bronzeoil one which doesn't exist and would make the vibrations of the tranny direct to the shifter.


Either way I still want a pair of the smaller ones and I could probably sell a few bazillion of these on all of the mazda forums I go on, all depends on 1.8Ts ability to produce like 100 sets lol
