Default On going battle with Hardrace

On May 12th I ordered an entire bushing replacement for the car. I got 90% of it and now have been waiting OVER 1.5 months for the front upper bushings which are on "backorder" from Japan. I call and am constantly made promises "oh they will be in next week". Called again today same thing. My order was placed through HPT which is a dealer of Hardrace. I have called Hardrace directly and am told the same thing.

I find it UNBELIEVABLE there is not one set of front upper bushings in the entire country.

I will be leaving negative feedback for both of them, this should be listed on their website NOT IN STOCK. What joke

When I did my bushings swap I emailed every dealer to see if they're in stock before ordering and several bushings were on backorder. Complaining won't get you anywhere, either be patient or look at other options.

Ask for a refund and buy the Mugen ones. King Motorsports has them in stock. Sorry about your life.

Finally received the last set of bushings over a 2 month wait. They did 2 day priority ship them to me immediately but still. This has taken a huge chunk of time out of my summer car fun.
