Unless you are competing for a trophy like dean and scott, I wouldnt worry about the steering rack bushings. They dont make you any faster, and sure they arent legal, but they arent going to get protested either. Its worth the $30 for the rest of the time you drive the car.
Ive had them on my car for awhile now, and even got them for my moms legacy GT. Best mod for the money.
Ill install them on anyones car if they want, they are a biznatch to install if you havent done them before

Ive done it like 10 or 12 times now on pretty much every scoob model that can use them.
