i dont know any part numbers but i have needed to replace my M35 needs front sway bar bushes and rack ends at 45000kms are they the same bushes that have worn out on your car. somone could ad these part numbers to the list as well thanks. im currently chasing these numbers. I just had my car serviced at North East motor Repirs and it was very interesting underneath.

i rekon any suspension place can supply swaybar bushes, just need the diametre of the bar. as for rack ends, ni$$an might be the only option

On my car the bushes that are gone are the lower compression rod bushes. Nissan want 340 each as its the arm assy. I got one from yahoo so I have the broken one spare and would like to try source a replacement part for this.

radius arm ones are common to fail and there should be after market parts in your area as they are also on 350 Z yes?

Radius arm? which ones are these? Ar they the ones most furtherest back near the driver and passenger foot wells?

I got an arm second hand ex japan $30 said it was for an NM35 when I had a look at it against mine it was different and wouldnt fit due to the front drive shafts. The bush was the same though.

did a bit of research and the c-rod I got was off a G35 or V35 which is a little different and wont fit. See picture (Black part), Im only looking to replace the bush at the end.

yes those are the ones I just replaced for the second time, most common to wear but mine were improperly installed

available as separate part here in NZ ($70 NZ each)

that's the tie rod I just replaced below it ($200 NZ)

scoured the net and it looks like we can use these bush kits.

but read the small print:

"Designed for competition, more vibration will be transferred to the cabin"

and it looks like they're mostly supplying rear suspension bushes

many of the front bushes can only be obtained with arms/links attached but the ones I bought weren't that expensive at that time

they were:

54618AQ300 - rod assy stab m35 (one)

54668AQ300 - rod assy stab m35 (one)

54618AQ305 - rod connecting stab m35 (two)

all were $50

of course more vibration will be transferred to the cabin, they are a firmer bush, soft ones absorb the vibrations, but they wear out faster. so you need to have a cup of concrete and harden up and get the poly bushes :wacko:

$50 isnt too bad, but its still a rubber bush

I am having the same issue with the same bushes as well,

I am waiting for a quote from a JDM importer at the moment,

more liky i will be buying a new control arm as I think should be a good idea to replce the whole thing cuase i want to get a new ball join too.

I agree, the more I look into it Im going to order the genuine arms as I dont really want any problems with it. At least then I know that they wont wear out in the lifetime I have with the car. The problem is that when I costed them last they were $340 each, hope they havent gone up :)

Just got a call from the guy who i used for a long time...

he told me he can do it for $ 290 and send by ems shipping.

but then he told me if i can afforded to order another one ( LHS and RHD ) he can possibly make it a bit cheaper as in the cost would be less...

Due to the unstable econ climate, I just order one for now...

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
