      the original ones were made without knowledge BMW for some odd reason made like 15 slight variations of control arms. (wtf mate?) anyway, since a small number of people ran into problems, they finally heard about it from R3V since no one in person did.

      the new bushing redesign eliminates the problem as Robert Wells mentioned. they will provide it to people who are experiencing problems with their current bushings. the new stuff really holds no advantage over the old stuff, so if you don't have popping now, there's not reason to seek the redesigned material.

      at least now the new material cures the problem, and THR has been able to improve on the small shortfall of their innovative and completely new kind of product, people can stop talking shit and making it seem like everyone gets popping. geez, the intraw3b is gay.

        I don't think it's so much that there was a problem and people were bitching about it, but at first they denied there was anything wrong at all. good to hear they resolved it though, I'm sure it's a fine product.

          I love mine and had no popping until the last week or so. I'll call on Monday.

                I wasn't trying to stir up any trouble either, just wanted those who had popping issues to know that there IS a cure. You would think that people would have sought a solution without being told to do so, but you never know. The main thing was, I wanted people to know that I got mine resolved and that Treehouse Racing was very good to deal with, and Jon and Rob went out of their way to make sure that I got mine fixed.

                  Just put my Eyeball arms to the test over the weekend - they are great. Love them.

                  No popping or noises at all when installed on my brand new OE Control Arms.

                    Ireland Engineering...slow shipping

                    Ordered urethane motor mounts on 5/18/06 today is 5/30/06 and they still have not been shipped. Sucks when it holds up a m30 turbo motor swap for 2 weeks. I'm going to call them today and see what they say.

                          Tried to call w/ no answer. Sent email to cancel due to long shipping delay. Ireland sent email back immediately cancelling mounts.

                          I think I'll go with the solid aluminium mounts anyway.

                            Ireland Eng. is notorious for this...

                            Great parts, but slow to ship and move on customer's requests. Realize that they are basically a couple of racers and mechanics in a small garage that run a business on the side.

                              Then you think they would need the cash.

                                I'm not making excuses for them --- just telling you like it is.
