Hi, I was wondering if anyone could check Fast to search for both left and right lower control arms on a R32 GTR? I have a 1993 model, series 2.

I'm having issues with these arms. I purchased a replacement for my suspected bent one but I don't think it is the right one and the number stamped on it is different. I tried contacting Nissan but was told Fast no longer has R32's loaded. I'm getting desperate and don't want to buy another until I know what the issue is.

Do you need my VIN?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

Probably the most accurate way, but here are all the part numbers. A late R32 is what I selected:

It looks like the part changed in 93, so VIN would show only one part.

Hey, thanks Randy. My VIN is BNR32-301183 . The arms on my car have H2405U (Left) marked in the casting. 5H05U (Right). The right one seems to be the problem and increases neg camber more than left.

I fitted another right arm marked 3405U and drastically reduced camber to zero. I'm pretty sure the left one is correct and camber is where it should be. Only things it could be is the 3rd link or maybe the cross member? Car has no signs of major damage that's been repaired so I'm thinking the original arm is bent and I need a replacement 5H05U.

Thanks again for the quick reply mate.

No probs! Cheers!

Presumably you don't have camber bolts in the struts?

Here are the part numbers for your car, and the alternate part numbers. The other side is 54505 with the same endings.

    • Sane enough. Remove the roof liner, because the acid will go everywhere.
    • Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help and experienced opinions.  I have spent a lot of my life working on boats so I'm pretty good with fibreglass. I'll take everybody's advice in here;  I'll cut a little more of the 2nd layer away as it's a bit crunchy rust and also it's sitting high now. Then I'll wire brush it all a bit to get off anything loose, then I'll soak the bejesus out of it all in rust converter. I'll make sure to get a little hose piece and feed it into all the holes and gaps between the roof layers. Then I'll fibreglass up the holes.  Then I'll get a pallet of filler and mix it with 3 buckets of hardener and hope that is enough to build up the roof corner.  Does that sound sane? Is one type of filler better than others for this?
    • My goals for it atm are to get it registered, respray and some mild power gains eventually... I picked up the car from an elderly gentleman near the border of NSW and VIC, its honestly a bit rough and looks like its been driven on a farm (because there was so much dirt underneath). Last week I dropped the subframe and emptied the old fuel out + added a new fuel pump (think the old one went bad from old fuel). Now I'm onto fixing a coolant leak at the rear of the engine + adding a new radiator as the old one is corroded. After that i have a new bumper, coils (as the old were leaking) and lots more
    • Welcome buddy! Plenty on here and YouTube. What are your plans for it? Good luck with the Rwc and Rego bud!
    • Love this so much! Please post a photo when you have a bike on the trailer.  I was a little bit worried about having a tow bar on the Skyline, but having it hidden behind the number plate is genius
