I Damaged One Of My Castor Bushes, Anyone Got One?


Recommended Posts

Well on the weekend i has having some fun over grass tree hill, a lot of fun, came into one corner a bit hard and the front wheel dropped of into a curb and then launched the car on the other side, sounded horible. Anyway, looks like i damaged the Passenger side castor bush, she's split. BUGGGAAA.

Anyone have a rod i can buy? Or can you get a bush to press into it, like a nolothane one?

I have seen the adjustable rods but they tend not to last too long.

Can somone point me in the right direction.

yeah i found that option, you mean just the inserts or the full rose joint rods. The thing with rose joint ones, is that they tend to wear out blody quick.

any one have an old stock one they can sell?

Whiteline can/will sell you a replacement bush, not a rose joint. You can also get an adjustable setup that still uses a bush. Noltec offer the same, infact they can sell you a caster rod with it..

mine are a standard urathane type bush with an adjustable crush tube... works a charm... not had a problem and have not heard of any... have a look in the group buy section. sydneykid is probably still selling them at a good price!

yeh and they are like $500-700 or something rediculous!

WogsRus if your still comming up this weekend, the place where im meeting you sells Justjap castor rods

yeah i'll be up on friday i'll give you a call. If the ECU works i reccon i'll take it, but might need to keep it hush hush for the missis.

How much for the JustJap castor rods, they are rosejoint ones yeah. If so they are iligal to be used on public roads.

Nah the witeline kit is $125 for two bushes.

Hey wog.....

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
