What is the use of this part? located at the front of the subframe
It seems to be useless(and heavy)

it holds extra plutonium for the flux capacitor just in case you hit hyperdrive while your doing a reverse entry on a drift...

just kidding...

it helps dampin noise caused from vibation that comes from the drivetrain...

Thanks! :)
Im replacing to ES bushings now.
They have more rubber unlike the stock ones, if I will remove this parts from the subframe ,There will be any difference?

Is it matters if I will put back the subframe without those?

You'll be fine.

Some cars actually don't have those (IIRC, mine doesn't) from the factory.

If anything, you might notice a marginal increase in noise and/or vibration - but considering that you're replacing the bushings with a stiffer unit, this shouldn't matter to you at all.
