Anyone heard about this company or this "upgrade"? Will this have any effect on our cars?

havent seen any in person. solid subframe mounts do the same thing, but less comfortably.

Just throw a set of Sikky or Whiteline bushings in.

im gonna have to do more research on bushings. I looked up whiteline bushings on ebay and there are so many kinds, like front camber upper/lower/w e. Do you guys just replace everything?

Everything SPL one mine , except for whiteline rear upper control arm and Silky subframe bushings.

For a street car, lean more on whiteline

im currently on coils/sway bars, but its mainly a dd. Should I even bother with upgrading to whiteline bushings terrasmak?

For a DD i would swap out the front LCA bushings, front compression arm bushings and the rear diff bushing. I your DD is used as a play toy (autocross , track, canyons) i would also swap out to the Whiteline subframe bushing. That is really they only bushings needed for most people.

^^I did some research and found out replacing the bushings will cause some more vibrations/humming/noise/harsher ride. Is that true? I want better handling/less vibrations, not more. My steering wheel vibrates slightly at high speeds, even after wheel balance and alignment, so not sure if I want more vibrations going on even if they provide better handling. What do you think?

Also ty so much for the info :]

Flat spot in tire
Bent wheel
Bad wheel bearing
Wheel balance
Alignment screwed
Bad bushing

I don't remember what you already have done. I will mention that the bushings i mention about are not bad for DD, i have actually installed them on my Moms G35 and they do add a little harshness/noise , nothing like my SPL set with solid everything.
