Currently swapping my stock suspension to Ohlins R&T, I dropped my stock strut with sway bar end link still attached and tore a hole in the bushing/bearing? whatever it is (pictured). Looks/sounds like there’s some fluid and air leakage but it does seem to articulate fine, I’m guessing this needs replacing?

I would not risk using this potentially compromised component. Time to upgrade to SPL endlinks

appreciate your reply, I thought so too haha. might as well do the sway bars too

Just sent an email to SPL, their website only has some for the F20/F30 but I'm thinking they should still fit, no?

Looks like they only have rear sway bar endlinks readily available. I’d do exactly what you did and reach out to them. Hope they share some good news with you.

just in case you or anyone else is interested, turns out they do have front endlinks that are G20 compatible, they're just listed under A90 Supra/G29 Z4/G80/G42. they confirmed fitment after I gave them a rough measurement at ride height, which they mention on the site when ordering for use with aftermarket coilovers.
