Leave Oem caster in there if possible, are Very good design and constructed well,is sort of doubled up bush.110 k on mine and may have lasted another 100k if the bolts were not seized.
The caster replacement is much easier to remove than the camber bush if limited tooling.

Thanks for all the input guys. After thinking about, I'll just get Mugen compliance bushings and put the rest of the money towards new engine, trans, and diff mounts since those will be more likely to be needing replacements.

If your going to replace the diff mounts, I would check out the M&M Honda Racing Differential Mount Twin Frame Damper Kit http://www.gotuning.com/product_info...oducts_id=1819 with new OEM differential mounts.

Cool product. This looks much more enticing than adding a collar to stiffen things up. I wonder what the service interval is on something like this.

+1

Also if you are thinking for a spherical kit, consider that they are quite noisy!

I'm not sure on the damper life, but they can be ordered separately. I only have about 20 miles on that product, but I noticed better drivetrain response in a straight line with normal driving.
