The bushes are oil filled. They have cracked and are leakibg.

Couple of options

1- remove subframe and press in new bushes or pinapples.

2- lower subframe and put in subframe c lock spacers. This removes the slop that the worn stock bushes have. But also create some NVH.

Mine were leaking too. Seeing as I track my 32 occasionally I decided to put the C locking rings in mine. TBH I haven't checked if it still leaks LOL but it definitely stiffended it up in the mean time.

I'll probably look at replacing them one day.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
