Hi.

Got a Civic EK4 160bhp sedan stock... no mods. But I need to get some bushes for the car and want to get new ones that would last longer than OEM and give more feedback of the road. Also that it's my daily car in Portugal!

So what is the best bushes for the car? Energy suspension? Or other? What ones?

Also what are the best endlinks (front and back) for the car? OEM or other? Once again car is stock... no LCA's or other things.
Also, Energy Suspension sell endlinks from Moog... Is this ones better than OEM?

Please give me photos.

Thanks

Buy Honda bushes , Honda endlinks .... Replacing your worn bushes with new items will give it better feedback .

Honda bushes when put in right will last longer than most aftermarket bushes
 
Moog parts are made in japan and is a honda part manufacturer.Think for GMB or Koyo. I would not recommend ES for a daily car they wouldn't last long (~2 years) as the OEM ones.
For the bushes go for PIC/suja , HardRace or OEM ( i've got Pic/suja set from here link ). They are hard rubber bushings (between Hardrace and OEM) and last same or better than oem ones. They include a full set (26 pieces) an way chaeper than OEM. For the OEM set you will not get the front bushes , there is no part number for them.
For the endlinks go OEM , Moog or HardRace.
Here is some parts from Moog and HardRace bought for my EK4.

i got energy suspension bushing. love them; best options ive ever tried. thing is, i dunno if you can stand squeaking sounds at times specially in the upper arm assembly. it squeaks endlessly, but white grease eases it off. but the rest, is very good. lasted 6-7 years already. try it.
