Hey all,

I'm in need of some advise/help with the predicament i'm in, I've just recently brought a complete rear end bush kit from powerflex which is stated to fit my car (R32 GTR) they are labelled on the box as 200SX but there website says they are the same.

The bushes I recieved are:

Rear trailing arm bushes 45mm long

Rear link bushes

Rear toe link inner bushes

I have taken my car and bushes to pedders and fulcrum suspension and they have both said they don't look like they will fit.

Has anyone else had this same issue?

Do 200SX bushes fit in R32 GTR's?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

Well....actually 200sx would come very close to fitting. All of the subframe end bushes (ie subframe bushes and upper and lower control arm inner end) should be the same.

I thought upper control arm outer end (hub) were the same too.

In any case, if they say they don't fit....I guess they know what they are talking about ;)

200sx bushes for the rear subframe and control arm are different to GTR.

Subframe bushes are actually longer

Control arm inner bushes are wider and won't fit into the subframe.

Outer are the same as GTR/ most Nissan chassis.

Be cautious with the subframe bushes. Some brands require you to press the entire Nissan bush and outer shell from the subframe. Others (nolothane in particular) require you to cut the rubber section of the bush out and clean up the putter shell NOT removing it at all from the subframe.

This is a bitch of a job that is very time consuming to do properly.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
